Hi,

I am trying to add particular columns to DaTable.

C#

ds.ReadXml(@"D:\Sample.xml");
dt.Columns.Add(ds.Tables[0].Columns[0].ToString());
dt.Columns.Add(ds.Tables[0].Columns[9].ToString());
dt.Columns.Add(ds.Tables[0].Columns[10].ToString());

But it's giving me only column names, not data.
Please help

when you do something like above it will not add any data but will add only column to datatable.
rather than try below

C#

ds.ReadXml(@"D:\Sample.xml");

dt = ds.tables[0].copy();

this will copy both structure and data from table 0 to your datatable object. if you want to copy the structure only try using clone method insted of copy.

mark answer if it helpful.
