>If the query returns an anonymous type then you can't. If the query yields a known type then something like this will work:

Dim list As New List(Of String)() From { _
>	"One", _
>	"Two", _
>	"Three" _
>}
>Dim s As IEnumerable(Of String)
>s = From x In list select x

(Disclaimer: used a C# -> VB converter and assuming the translation is correct)
