What I am really trying to do is to write my first query. Where do I start.

It's not technically my *first* query. I've been using session.CreateCriteria with UniqueResult and with List, but the documentation says that is an experimental interface and that the stand Query is preferred.

Can someone point me to sample code using the QuerySelect class or the SqlSelectBuilder, or other classes in the SQLCommand namespace in NHibernate.

Thanks,

The standard docs have some examples. http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/nhibernate/html/

I disagree that the standard document at http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/nhibernate/html_single/ contains samples of queries that coded without using CreateCriteria.

Thanks anyway,
Steve

You're totally right, those docs don't have any HQL queries. I apologize.

It's the *Hibernate* docs that have query examples. The syntax is so close to being identical that it didn't make sense to duplicate it into the NHibernate docs.

The query documentation page you linked to is great!

Thanks,
Steve
