I am trying to populate data in gridview by using LinqDataSource and in the where condition of LinqDataSource1 - programmatically I am not sure about the syntax on how to pass a string value to a particular column?

What is the syntax for where condition in LinqDataSource on a string programmatically?

I am familiar with the one in int: 

 int id = 5;

for example: 

LinqDataSource1.Where = "ID =" +id;

But, not sure about the syntax for string.

Please suggest something!

    Can you please show the context of your question with relevant code? It is very difficult to understand what you are asking. – Jane S Jun 30 '14 at 23:22

Ok, finally I got the syntax for string in LinqDataSource:

LinqDataSource1.Where = "Title.Contains("+ "\"" + txtTitle.Text + "\""+ ")";
