LINQ
For the past few weeks, I'm trying to perform a LINQ query on a datatable object but I'm having a ton of issues. Here's what I tried: 
var results = from myRow in myDataTable
where results.Field("RowNo") == 1
select results;
But it's not working. Is there anything like this that works? Thanks.

Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

LINQ operates against sets that implement IEnumerable, which a datatable does not support by default.  However, using myDataTable.AsEnumberable() will convert the results to the proper format so LINQ can be used.

    Hi,
    Check this
    var results = from DataRow myRow in myDataTable.Rows
        where (int)myRow["RowNo"] == 1
        select myRow

    I hope it will be helpful for you.

    Thanks & Regard
