Examples

The following example creates a DataView and sets its RowFilter property.

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public class Form1 : Form {
   protected TextBox Text1;
   protected DataSet DataSet1;

   public static void Main() {
      DemostrateDataView();
   }

   private static void DemostrateDataView() {
      // Create a DataTable with one column
      DataTable dt = new DataTable("MyTable");
      DataColumn column = new DataColumn("Col", typeof(int));
      dt.Columns.Add(column);

      // Add 5 rows on Added state
      for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
         DataRow row = dt.NewRow();
         row["Col"] = i;
         dt.Rows.Add(row);
      }

      // Add 5 rows on Unchanged state
      for (int i = 5; i < 10; i++) {
         DataRow row = dt.NewRow();
         row["Col"] = i;
         dt.Rows.Add(row);
         // Calling AcceptChanges will make the DataRowVersion change from Added to Unchanged in this case
         row.AcceptChanges();
      }

      // Create a DataView
      DataView dv = new DataView(dt);

      Console.WriteLine("Print unsorted, unfiltered DataView");
      PrintDataView(dv);

      dv.Sort = "Col DESC";

      dv.Sort = String.Empty;

      foreach (DataRowView drv in dv) {

Remarks

To form a RowFilter value, specify the name of a column followed by an operator and a value to filter on. The value must be in quotation marks. For example:

"LastName = 'Smith'"

See the Expression property of the DataColumn class for more information.

To return only those columns with null values, use the following expression:

"Isnull(Col1,'Null Column') = 'Null Column'"
