Select specific Value from DataTable using LINQ

Help
#1

I am having a datatable having Id, System and Date.

I want to extract specific date (a single String/List) based on ID and system.

Please help how to get this using LINQ.

MYDT.AsEnumerable().Where(Function(x) x(“Id”).ToString = row(“ID”).ToString And x(“Name”).ToString = row(“Name”).ToString ).Select(Function(y) y MappedDate).List

Hi,
You can use a select query like this
datatable.select(“columnName= 'value '”) this will give you array of datarow.

@p4uk80 You can run this query in try block and in catch block check the exception message if exception.message = “The source contains no DataRows” than assign some value like True/False in variable and if message is deferent then rethrow the exception.

you can try in this way.

Hey,
Once you can check for the count and if condition to check if count greater than zero.
