Can we load a gridview in a datatable or dataset?

@Suthish,

I have a gridvirew with checkboxes.. I want to display the selected rows in another gridview .. How do i do it?

hi,
if u know the all the datatypes of the all the rows in gridview then just create a data table with columns and then loop out the grid  using for each and then make data row from each grid row and and to data table

some thing like below 

datatable dt= new datatable();
datatable.Columns.Add("col1");
...
datatable.Columns.Add("coln");

foreach(gridviewrow GR in gridview1)
{
datarow dr=dt.newrow();
dr["col1"]=gr.cells(0).text;
....
dr["coln"]=gr.cells(n).text;
datatable.Rows.Add(dr);


}


this is the way u can create a data table manually from data grid

Ohh yes..
if its a bound grid then just single statement will work for you.

DataTable dt=(DataTable)Gridview1.DataSource;

but if you have created the grid programmatically then you have to use some loops to create the datatable.Read the Gridview row by row and insert the value in the DataRow and add it to the datatable.

Hope this make sense to you.

Thanks.
