Populating dropdown with LINQ query that has a calculated column

[James2k9]

I'm using a function to return a number of years calculated from a datetime column, and am having trouble figuring out how to reference the calculated column when trying to populate a dropdown.Here is my Linq query:\[code\] var q = (from a in db.Applications where a.uID == ID select a.date.Year).Distinct(); return q.ToList();\[/code\]So, when I go to populate the dropdown...\[code\]Dropdown1.DataTextField = ?????\[/code\]
