Get Cell Value from a DataTable in C#

The DataRow has also an indexer:

Object cellValue = dt.Rows[i][j];

But i would prefer the strongly typed Field extension method which also supports nullable types:

int number = dt.Rows[i].Field<int>(j);

or even more readable and less error-prone with the name of the column:

double otherNumber = dt.Rows[i].Field<double>("DoubleColumn");

You probably need to reference it from the Rowsrather than as a cell:

var cellValue = dt.Rows[i][j];

You can iterate DataTable like this:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    for(int i = 0; i< dt.Rows.Count;i++)
        for (int j = 0; j <dt.Columns.Count ; j++)
        {
            object o = dt.Rows[i].ItemArray[j];
            //if you want to get the string
            //string s = o = dt.Rows[i].ItemArray[j].ToString();
        }
}

Depending on the type of the data in the DataTable cell, you can cast the object to whatever you want.


To get cell column name as well as cell value :

List<JObject> dataList = new List<JObject>();

for (int i = 0; i < dataTable.Rows.Count; i++)
{
    JObject eachRowObj = new JObject();

    for (int j = 0; j < dataTable.Columns.Count; j++)
    {
        string key = Convert.ToString(dataTable.Columns[j]);
        string value = Convert.ToString(dataTable.Rows[i].ItemArray[j]);

        eachRowObj.Add(key, value);

    }

    dataList.Add(eachRowObj);

}
