Gets an array of DataRow objects that contain errors.

Public Function GetErrors As DataRow()

Dim returnValue As DataRow()

public function GetErrors() : DataRow[]
Invoke GetErrors after invoking the DataSet class's GetChanges method. Also, be sure you do not invoke AcceptChanges on the DataTable until after you have resolved all errors, and have re-submitted the DataSet for updating.
The following example uses the GetErrors method to return an array of DataRow objects that have errors.
Private Sub PrintAllErrs(ByVal dataSet As DataSet)
Dim rowsInError() As DataRow
Dim table As DataTable
Dim i As Integer
Dim column As DataColumn
For Each table In dataSet.Tables
' Test if the table has errors. If not, skip it.
If table.HasErrors Then
' Get an array of all rows with errors.
rowsInError = table.GetErrors()
' Print the error of each column in each row.
For i = 0 To rowsInError.GetUpperBound(0)
For Each column In table.Columns
Console.WriteLine(column.ColumnName, _
rowsInError(i).GetColumnError(column))
Next
' Clear the row errors
rowsInError(i).ClearErrors
Next i
End If
Next
End Sub
private void PrintAllErrs(DataSet dataSet)
{
DataRow[] rowsInError;
foreach(DataTable table in dataSet.Tables)
{
// Test if the table has errors. If not, skip it.
if(table.HasErrors)
{
// Get an array of all rows with errors.
rowsInError = table.GetErrors();
// Print the error of each column in each row.
for(int i = 0; i < rowsInError.Length; i++)
{
foreach(DataColumn column in table.Columns)
{
Console.WriteLine(column.ColumnName + " " +
rowsInError[i].GetColumnError(column));
}
// Clear the row errors
rowsInError[i].ClearErrors();
}
}
}
