A Quick Way to Copy DataRow

Expertise: Beginner
Language: .NET

August 21, 2006

Instead of copying DataRow column by column, the following code copies data in one line from the source to the destination row:


DataTable dtDest = new DataTable();
dtDest = dsActivity.Tables[0].Clone();
foreach(DataRow dr in dsSrc.Tables[0].Rows)
{
 DataRow newRow = dtDest .NewRow();
 newRow.ItemArray = dr.ItemArray;
 dtDest.Rows.Add(newRow);
}
