List <Objects> to String[] : <p>I am trying to query from a database and it returns List and I needed a string[] of the medName field</p>

<pre><code>public List&lt;Medicines&gt; selectMeds()
        {
            try
            {

                using (var connection = new SQLiteConnection(System.IO.Path.Combine(folder, "mediapp.db")))
                {
                    return connection.Table&lt;Medicines&gt;().ToList();

                }
            }
            catch (SQLiteException ex)
            {
                Log.Info("SQLiteEx", ex.Message);
                return null;
            }
        }
</code></pre>

<p>while the Medicines class is</p>

<pre><code>[Table("Medicines")]
    public class Medicines
    {
        [PrimaryKey]
        public int id { get; set; }
        public string medName { get; set; }
        public string medDesc { get; set; }

    }
</code></pre>

<p>How can I query one column from the sqlite database to string[]? or can I convert the Medicine object to string[], getting only the values for medName?</p>
