LINQ in MVC Razor View

I have written a working MVC web app. I started using SQL statements back to the DB, but have changed to LINQ. I have a view that shows all work in the IT department and a button to allow the user to select tasks allocated to them.

I am trying to get the IT workers list from the model list of files, like this

{@IEnumerable<@AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails> fls = @Model.FILES.Where(q=>q.DEVELOPER=="ac")}

but I get an error

Using the generic type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable' requires 1 type arguments

I've also tried

{@List<@AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails> fls = @Model.FILES.Where(q=>q.DEVELOPER=="ac")}
{@IList<@AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails> fls = @Model.FILES.Where(q=>q.DEVELOPER=="ac")}

Try this:

@{
    IEnumerable<AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails> fls =
        Model.FILES.Where(q=>q.DEVELOPER=="ac").ToList();
 }

Although it seems that AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails is not a type.

Try to think of it like:

IEnumerable<int> = new List<int>();

or

IEnumerable<SomeClass> = new List<SomeClass>();

By the way, keep in mind that it's bad habbit to query a database from a view, it disturbs the MVC pattern.

And make sure that Model.FILES.Where(q=>q.DEVELOPER=="ac") returns items of type: AERS_WEB.Models.clsFileDetails.
