entity framework doesn't work as a datasource?

[Andy B]

I have the following code and can't quite figure out why it doesn't work. in
the first section, I am trying to take the data from a entity framework
function import and use it inside a repeater.

<asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate >
<% #Bind("Title") %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

In this section of code, I have the code that creates the entity context and
(I think) runs the function GetAllNews and binds it to the repeater control.
This doesn't seem to work for some reason.

Dim NewsContext As New eternityrecords onlineEntities( )
Repeater1.DataS ource = NewsContext.Get AllNews()

I get this error from vs2008 when I am in the markup of the page:
Error 1 'If', 'ElseIf', 'Else', 'End If', 'Const', or 'Region' expected.

Any idea why this is?

Ok. Fixed my own problem. the # was in the wrong spot.
