Hello,

I am getting a anonymous type from Linq Query inside a function.
How can I return the obtained values and use them outside the
function?

Do I need to create a new class?

Here is my code:

   Public Shared Function GetStats() As ??????????????????

     Dim database As New CodeDataContext
     Dim statistics = database.Tags.Select( _
     Function(t) New With { _
       Key .Total = database.Tags.Count(), _
       Key .Linked = database.Tags.Where( _
         Function(tag) _
           tag.FilesTags.Any() OrElse _
           tag.ArticlesTags.Any()).Count() _
     }).FirstOrDefault()

     Return statistics ???????????????????

   End Function

Thanks,
Miguel
