C# Code to Create ASP.

Net DataTable
view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
// Initialize a DataTable
DataTable myDataTable = newDataTable();

// Initialize DataColumn
DataColumn myDataColumn = newDataColumn();

// Add First DataColumn

// AllowDBNull property
myDataColumn.AllowDBNull = false;

// set AutoIncrement property to true

myDataColumn.AutoIncrement = true;

// set AutoIncrementSeed property equal to 1

myDataColumn.AutoIncrementSeed = 1;

// set AutoIncrementStep property equal to 1

myDataColumn.AutoIncrementStep = 1;

// set ColumnName property to specify the column name

myDataColumn.ColumnName = "auto_ID";

// set DataType property of the column as Integer

myDataColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Int32");

// set Unique property of DataColumn to true to allow unqiue value for this
column in each row

myDataColumn.Unique = true;

// Add and Create a first DataColumn

myDataTable.Columns.Add(myDataColumn);

// Add second DataColumn

// initialize a new instance of DataColumn to add another column with
different properties.
myDataColumn = newDataColumn();
myDataColumn.ColumnName = "firstName";

// set DataType property of the column as String

myDataColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.String");

// Add and Create a Second DataColumn

myDataTable.Columns.Add(myDataColumn);

// initialize a new instance of DataColumn to add another column with

different properties.
myDataColumn = newDataColumn();
myDataColumn.ColumnName = "lastName";

// set DataType property of the column as String

myDataColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.String");

// Add and Create a Third DataColumn

myDataTable.Columns.Add(myDataColumn);
Step 2:C# Code to Add New Rows to ASP.Net DataTable

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

// create a new row using NewRow() function of DataTable.
// dataRow object will inherit the schema of myDataTable to create a new
row
DataRow dataRow = myDataTable.NewRow();

dataRow["firstName"] = "John";
dataRow["lastName"] = "Smith";

// add new data row to the data table.

myDataTable.Rows.Add(dataRow);

// similarly adds the second row to the DataTable

dataRow = myDataTable.NewRow();

dataRow["firstName"] = "Will";
dataRow["lastName"] = "Smith";

myDataTable.Rows.Add(dataRow);
Step 3:C# Code to bind ASP.Net GridView to DataTable
view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
GridView1.DataSource = myDataTable;
GridView1.DataBind();
HTML Source Code for GridView bound to a DataTable
view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1"
runat="server"
AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>

<asp:BoundField
DataField="auto_ID"
HeaderText="Auto ID" />
<asp:BoundField
DataField="firstName"
HeaderText="First Name" />
<asp:BoundField
DataField="lastName"
HeaderText="Last Name" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
Above code will generate the following output:
