Try Reegenerator

Reegenerator (<a href="http://www.reegenerator.com">http://www.reegenerator.com</a>) allows you to customize the code generated by the LINQtoSQL designer. You will still be using the default designer but you can have full control over the generated code. Watch how to do it at http://www.reegenerator.com/ShowVideo.htm?video=Replace.swf

The video shows you how easy it is to start building a LINQtoSQL code generator that gets invoked by the LINQtoSQL default designer.

You can download the code generators at http://www.reegenerator.com/TemplatesGallery.htm. This page gives you replacements for LINQtoSQL, Dataset, Resources and Settings designers (C# and VB). All the renderers emulate the default behaviour in order to offer you a familiar starting point for any customization you want to implement.

If your customizations are minimal, you can invoke the default code generator, capture the results as a string, modify them as you like and return the modified results to Visual Studio to be saved in the .Designer.cs file.
