Any built-in methods which is not virtual can't override. Below is some part of the built-in class DataTable definition. // // Summary: // This method returns an System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaSet instance containing the // Web Services Description Language (WSDL) that describes the System.Data.DataTable // for Web Services. // // Parameters: // schemaSet: // An System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaSet instance. // // Returns: // The System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaSet instance. public static XmlSchemaComplexType GetDataTableSchema(XmlSchemaSet schemaSet); // // Summary: // Commits all the changes made to this table since the last time System.Data.DataTable.AcceptChanges // was called. public void AcceptChanges(); // // Summary: // Begins the initialization of a System.Data.DataTable that is used on a form or // used by another component. The initialization occurs at run time. public virtual void BeginInit(); // // Summary: // Turns off notifications, index maintenance, and constraints while loading data. public void BeginLoadData(); // // Summary: // Clears the System.Data.DataTable of all data. public void Clear(); // // Summary: // Clones the structure of the System.Data.DataTable, including all System.Data.DataTable // schemas and constraints. // // Returns: // A new System.Data.DataTable with the same schema as the current System.Data.DataTable. public virtual DataTable Clone(); // // Summary: // Computes the given expression on the current rows that pass the filter criteria. // // Parameters: // expression: // The expression to compute. // // filter: // The filter to limit the rows that evaluate in the expression. // // Returns: // An System.Object, set to the result of the computation. If the expression evaluates // to null, the return value will be System.DBNull.Value. public object Compute( string expression, string filter); // // Summary: // Copies both the structure and data for this System.Data.DataTable. // // Returns: // A new System.Data.DataTable with the same structure (table schemas and constraints) // and data as this System.Data.DataTable.If these classes have been derived, the // copy will also be of the same derived classes. System.Data.DataTable.Copy creates // a new System.Data.DataTable with the same structure and data as the original // System.Data.DataTable. To copy the structure to a new System.Data.DataTable, // but not the data, use System.Data.DataTable.Clone. public DataTable Copy(); // // Summary: // Returns a System.Data.DataTableReader corresponding to the data within this System.Data.DataTable. // // Returns: // A System.Data.DataTableReader containing one result set, corresponding to the // source System.Data.DataTable instance. public DataTableReader CreateDataReader(); // // Summary: // Ends the initialization of a System.Data.DataTable that is used on a form or // used by another component. The initialization occurs at run time. public virtual void EndInit(); // // Summary: // Turns on notifications, index maintenance, and constraints after loading data. public void EndLoadData(); // // Summary: // Gets a copy of the System.Data.DataTable containing all changes made to it since // it was last loaded, or since System.Data.DataTable.AcceptChanges was called, // filtered by System.Data.DataRowState. // // Parameters: // rowStates: // One of the System.Data.DataRowState values. // // Returns: // A filtered copy of the System.Data.DataTable that can have actions performed // on it, and later be merged back in the System.Data.DataTable using System.Data.DataSet.Merge(System.Data.DataSet). // If no rows of the desired System.Data.DataRowState are found, the method returns // null. public DataTable GetChanges(DataRowState rowStates); // // Summary: // Gets a copy of the System.Data.DataTable that contains all changes made to it // since it was loaded or System.Data.DataTable.AcceptChanges was last called. // // Returns: // A copy of the changes from this System.Data.DataTable, or null if no changes // are found. public DataTable GetChanges(); // // Summary: // Gets an array of System.Data.DataRow objects that contain errors. // // Returns: // An array of System.Data.DataRow objects that have errors. public DataRow[] GetErrors(); // // Summary: // Populates a serialization information object with the data needed to serialize // the System.Data.DataTable. // // Parameters: // info: // A System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo object that holds the serialized // data associated with the System.Data.DataTable. // // context: // A System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext object that contains the source // and destination of the serialized stream associated with the System.Data.DataTable. // // Exceptions: // T:System.ArgumentNullException: // The info parameter is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). public virtual void GetObjectData(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context); You can see some methods are defined as virtual and can be overriden like below. e.g. clone(). public class Car : DataTable { public override DataTable Clone() { //your logic return base .Clone(); } } Methods defined as non virtuals can't override. The list is huge, but in VisualStudio, you can check is it virtual or not.

Specifying methods as virtual, abstract, or override make them overriden Absense of these means a method is final.
