Convert IQueryable<> type object to List<T> type?

Then just Select:

var list = source.Select(s=>new { ID = s.ID, Name = s.Name }).ToList();

(edit) Actually - the names could be inferred in this case, so you could use:

var list = source.Select(s=>new { s.ID, s.Name }).ToList();

which saves a few electrons...

Add the following:

using System.Linq

...and call ToList() on the IQueryable<>.

The List class's constructor can convert an IQueryable for you:

public static List<TResult> ToList<TResult>(this IQueryable source)
{
    return new List<TResult>(source);
}

or you can just convert it without the extension method, of course:

var list = new List<T>(queryable);
