I am working on a VB.net project now. I am new to VB.Net LINQ and would like to know the Lambda equivalent of
var _new = orders.Select(x => x.items > 0);
in VB.Net.
Someone please suggest!

The lambda syntax isn't that much different than creating a regular delegate.
If creating a lambda which has a return value, use Function. Otherwise if you're creating one that doesn't, use Sub.
Dim _new = orders.Select(Function(x) x.Items > 0)
Dim action As Action(Of Item) = Sub(x) Console.WriteLine(x.Items)

It looks different from a standard delegate, since in this case there is no `return` statement, and the value returned is the value of the expression in the body of the delegate. – Paolo Moretti Aug 19 '13 at 15:29

I had always thought that the delegate in VB.net had an optional `Return` statement. – Jeff Mercado Aug 19 '13 at 15:37
