Hi, try like Module1 : int i=0; foreach (var info in infos) { if(i==5 or i==6) { break ; } else { htmlTh = new TableHeaderCell(); htmlTh.Text = info.Name; htmlTr.Cells.Add(htmlTh); i++; } } Module2 : you can use foreach instead of for loop for the best for your requirement. Because if you want only 5 or 6 data only thats y.If you want all at the time use foreach loop. for (int i=0; i { if (i==5) { break; } else { //ur code } }

Hi Ekram, You are most Welcome.. But just right now I have seen that you have written that you want the result using LINQ. you can achieve it by below query var list = (from t in infos select t ).Take(5); Please accept as answer if it helps you. 259

Hi, You can decide that which data you want to iterate using break and continue. You can use something like foreach (var info in infos) { if (info != yourequireddata) continue; htmlTh = new TableHeaderCell(); htmlTh.Text = info.Name; htmlTr.Cells.Add(htmlTh); } or if you need only 5 data you can use break keyword. please visit the below link for combination of break & continue. http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/efa3cf/break-vs-continue-in-C-Sharp/ 147
