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);
}
Note: The ImportRow method does the same thing, except that the RowState of source is preserved in the destination, whereas NewRow sets RowState to Added.
