I am getting a Cannot access object: DataContext after it's been disposed in the below DAL method. I thought that I would be okay calling dispose there. result is an IEnumurable and I thought it was IQueryable that caused these kinds of problems.

What am I doing wrong? How SHOULD I be disposing of my DataContext. Is there something better to be returning then a DataTable? This is a Desktop app that points at SQL 2005.

Example method that causes this error -->


    public static DataTable GetEnrolledMembers(Guid workerID)
    {
        var DB = CmoDataContext.Create();

        var AllEnrollees = from enrollment in DB.tblCMOEnrollments
                           where enrollment.CMOSocialWorkerID == workerID || enrollment.CMONurseID == workerID
                           join supportWorker in DB.tblSupportWorkers on enrollment.EconomicSupportWorkerID
                               equals supportWorker.SupportWorkerID into workerGroup
                           from worker in workerGroup.DefaultIfEmpty()
                           select
                               new
                               {
                                   enrollment.ClientID,
                                   enrollment.CMONurseID,
                                   enrollment.CMOSocialWorkerID,
                                   enrollment.EnrollmentDate,
                                   enrollment.DisenrollmentDate,
                                   ESFirstName = worker.FirstName,
                                   ESLastName = worker.LastName,
                                   ESPhone = worker.Phone
                               };

        var result = from enrollee in AllEnrollees.AsEnumerable()
                     where (enrollee.DisenrollmentDate == null || enrollee.DisenrollmentDate > DateTime.Now)
                     //let memberName = BLLConnect.MemberName(enrollee.ClientID)
                     let lastName = BLLConnect.MemberLastName(enrollee.ClientID)
                     let firstName = BLLConnect.MemberFirstName(enrollee.ClientID)
                     orderby enrollee.DisenrollmentDate ascending, lastName ascending
                     select
                         new
                         {
                             enrollee.ClientID,
                             //MemberName = memberName,
                             LastName = lastName,
                             FirstName = firstName,
                             NurseName = BLLAspnetdb.NurseName(enrollee.CMONurseID),
                             SocialWorkerName = BLLAspnetdb.SocialWorkerName(enrollee.CMOSocialWorkerID),
                             enrollee.EnrollmentDate,
                             enrollee.DisenrollmentDate,
                             ESWorkerName = enrollee.ESFirstName + " " + enrollee.ESLastName,
                             enrollee.ESPhone
                         };
        DB.Dispose();

        return result.CopyLinqToDataTable();
    }

partial class where I create the DataContext -->


partial class CmoDataContext
{
    public static bool IsDisconnectedUser
    {
        get
        {
            return Settings.Default.IsDisconnectedUser;
        }
    }

    public static CmoDataContext Create()
    {
        var cs = IsDisconnectedUser ? Settings.Default.CMOConnectionString : Settings.Default.Central_CMOConnectionString;
        return       new CmoDataContext(cs);
    }
