Hi,

You can read DataRow for each DataColumn in DataTable. I have attached a screenshot for same.Here item is of type DataColumn.

IS there any other way to compare to columns value of excel without looping…?

You can do some magic actually:

I will reffer to an older post where i explain how working with List instead of using Datatables can help when you need to work with dataTables.

What are you trying to do?

I will give you some examples:

List of first columns values as string :

string.join(“,”, dataTable.Rows.Cast(of DataRow).Select(function(row) row(0).tostring).tolist)

Getting totals for data subgroups:

In order to understand the example Column1=Footbal Team Column2=Cost

Total cost of all player on each team: it could be done with only one line code but would be more difficult

for each (teamName in dataTable.Rows.Cast(of DataRow).Select(function(row) row(0).tostring).distinct)
accumulativeCost = dataTable.Rows.Cast(of DataRow).Where(function(row) row(0).tostring = teamName).Sum(function(row) row(1))

You can do almost anything with linq :slight_smile: give us a detailed explanation about your problem and we can provide you a detailed answer :slight_smile:

string.join(“,”, dataTable.Rows.Cast(of DataRow).Select(function(row) row(0).tostring).tolist)

This is working only for the first item. when coming to second looping the output data is in dupilcate format.

Example: 1st line: “abc” and “def” output: “abc def”
2nd line: “123” and “456” output: “123 123 123 456 456 456”
