Dtclone= (From d In Dt.AsEnumerable()
Group d By k=d("owner").toString.Trim Into grp = Group
Let count = grp.count
Let ra = New Object(){k,count}
Select r = DtClone.Rows.Add(ra)).CopyToDataTable()
Use this in assign
Dt is your orginal datatable
Dtclone is the new datatable
Here its grouping on owner column and counting the number of records for each group
Cheers
