Illegal characters in path. Error when using Skip

Hi there I have the following action in my controller

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult Index()
{
    IEnumerable<SurveyResult> myresult = filterData();
    totalCount = myresult.Count<SurveyResult>();
    ViewBag.totalCount = totalCount;
    //myresult = myresult.Skip<SurveyResult>(100 * pageIndex).Take<SurveyResult>(100);
    return View(myresult);
}

Here is my view

@model IEnumerable<SurveyResult>
@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Survey Results";
}
@using (Html.BeginForm())
{

    <table class="std-tbl">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>
                    DEL
                </th>
                ...

                <th>
                </th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        @Html.DisplayFor(x => x, new { pageIndex = ViewBag.index })
    </table>
}

I have a partial view for SurveyResult but I am not including it because i don't think its relevant. Here is my question. The above code is working fine but as soon as I uncomment the following line

myresult = myresult.Skip<SurveyResult>(100 * pageIndex).Take<SurveyResult>(100);

I get "Illegal characters in path. " I think it can find the partialView for SurveyResult. I don't understand why it can find it when the above line is commented but it can't when its uncommented? Thank you.

Here is my stack trace

Here is the source Error:

Line 161: Line 162: Line 163: @Html.DisplayFor(x => x, new { pageIndex = ViewBag.index }) Line 164: Line 165:}

DisplayFor is looking for a view named after the name of the EF-generated implementation classes, which contain illegal characters.

Try calling .ToList() in the controller.
