I was also struggling with this and this is how I got it work:

  1. Place the Dynamic.cs file in the App_Code folder of your application (not sure this is absolutely necessary but I'd it anyway)
  2. Once there right click this file (Dynamic.cs) in your solution explorer and in it's properties window change the build action to COMPILE! (this is crucial)
  3. Now you need to add using System.Linq.Dynamic; where you intend to use it

thanks to this guy

Well, I'll first say that dynamic LINQ is usually overkill, but sometimes useful. But you should just be able to reference the dll and away you go. If no intellisense is appearing, but it compiles, then check where (physically) the dynamic linq dll is located. Ensure the "foo.dll.xml" file is located next to "foo.dll" (where "foo" is the assembly - perhaps System.Linq.Dynamic ?). This is key for intellisense when using assembly references.
