Hi,

In my sql database I have tables with name which include underscores, for readability. Just to try and make it clearer see below:

TableFoo

TableFoo_TableBah

Where TableFoo has a key linking to TableFoo_TableBah, this is done so you can quickly see what the table TableBah relates to. I have used this naming convention before with tools such as CodeSmith which give the option to remove the underscores, but I cannot see how to do this in Entity Framework 4.

Is there a way to do this, or am I stuck with either renaming my tables or having objets such as TableFoo_TableBah?

Thanks,
