           Data.MedicalGroup MedicalgroupEF = new Data.MedicalGroup();

           MedicalgroupEF.MedicalGroupName = model.MedicalGroupName;
           MedicalgroupEF.AddressId = model.AddressId;
           MedicalgroupEF.ContactId = model.ContactId;

           int id = 0;
           using (Data.RxMedicaDBEntities content = new Data.RxMedicaDBEntities())
           {
               content.AddToMedicalGroups(MedicalgroupEF);
               content.SaveChanges();

               id = MedicalgroupEF.MedicalGroupId;
           }
           model = Get(id);
           return model;
       }

controller:

           medicalgroupList = RxMedica.Configuration.ServiceLocator.MedicalgroupHandler.Add(model);

           return Json(medicalgroupList.ToDataSourceResult(request), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
       }

Where do you get the error? More details would be better.

Don't you think it would be important if you told us what the error was?

1.'RxMedica.Data.RxMedicaDBEntities': type used in a using statement must be implicitly convertible to 'System.IDisposable'
2.The name 'Medicalgroupname','AddressId','ContactId' does not exist in the current context

Can share the list of namespaces you're using ?

Your model is a list of MedicalGroupModel objects

List<MedicalGroupModel> medicalgroupmodel = new List<MedicalGroupModel>();

but when you add to it you are adding a class of type MedicalGroup

C#

var newgroup = new MedicalGroup();
{
    Medicalgroupname = newgroup.MedicalGroupName;
    AddressId = newgroup.AddressId;
    ContactId = newgroup.ContactId;
}

Maybe the AddressId and ContactId etc properties are on the MedicalGroupModel class instead? ie did you mean this

C#

var newgroup = new MedicalGroupModel();
{
    Medicalgroupname = newgroup.MedicalGroupName;
    AddressId = newgroup.AddressId;
    ContactId = newgroup.ContactId;
}

As for the IDisposable error, if you want to use something in a "using" block it must implement IDisposible, so if your RxMedicaDBEntities doesn't then amend it so it does.

C#

public class RxMedicaDBEntities : IDisposable

Solution 2

If you're getting the using error with a EF DbContext, its usually because you didn't add the EntityFramework to the project that's using the context.
