Private Sub PrintRows(ByVal dataSet As DataSet)
Dim table As DataTable
Dim row As DataRow
Dim column As DataColumn
' For each table in the DataSet, print the row values.
For Each table in dataSet.Tables
For Each row In table.Rows
For Each column in table.Columns
Console.WriteLine(row(column))
Next column
Next row
Next table
End Sub
private void PrintRows(DataSet dataSet)
{
// For each table in the DataSet, print the row values.
foreach(DataTable table in dataSet.Tables)
{
foreach(DataRow row in table.Rows)
{
foreach (DataColumn column in table.Columns)
{
Console.WriteLine(row[column]);
}
}
}
