Hi,

I have a DataTable full of data. Now I am trying to clone it with its
schema and its data. A snippet of the code is shown below

DataTable original, cloned;

.... loads schema from an xsd file and loads data from an xml file
// original.Rows.Count is being found as 95 - correct
cloned = original.Clone();
// original.Rows.Count is being found as 95 - correct
// cloned.Rows.Count is being found as 0 - correct

When using the clone method, is the data found in the table also
cloned? If no, is there a way from cloning the data?



Can someone help me out
Thanks in Advance

The DataTable.Clone() clone only the structure.

You need something like this:

// clone the structure
cloned = table.Clone();

// clone the data (eventually filtered/ordered)
foreach(DataRow r in table.Select(filter, orderBy))
cloned.ImportRow(r)
