DataTable.ChildRelations
Gets the collection of child relations for this DataTable.
A DataRelation defines the relationship between two tables. Typically, two tables are linked through a single field that contains the same data. For example, a table which contains address data may have a single field containing codes that represent countries/regions. A second table that contains country/region data will have a single field that contains the code that identifies the country/region, and it is this code which is inserted into the corresponding field in the first table. A DataRelation, then, contains at least four pieces of information: (1) the name of the first table, (2) the column name in the first table, (3) the name of the second table, and (4) the column name in the second table.

For each item in the array, print the value of each column. */ DataTable table = CreateDataSet().Tables["Customers"]; DataRow[] childRows; foreach(DataRelation relation in table.ChildRelations) { foreach(DataRow row in table.Rows) { PrintRowValues(new DataRow[] {row}, "Parent Row"); childRows = row.GetChildRows(relation); // Print values of rows. PrintRowValues(childRows, "child rows"); } } } public static DataSet CreateDataSet() { // create a DataSet with one table, two columns DataSet dataSet = new DataSet(); // create Customer table DataTable table = new DataTable("Customers"); dataSet.Tables.Add(table); table.Columns.Add("customerId", typeof(int)).AutoIncrement = true; table.Columns.Add("name", typeof(string)); table.PrimaryKey = new DataColumn[] { table.Columns["customerId"] }; // create Orders table table = new DataTable("Orders"); dataSet.Tables.Add(table); table.Columns.Add("orderId", typeof(int)).AutoIncrement = true; table.Columns.Add("customerId", typeof(int)); table.Columns.Add("amount", typeof(double)); table.PrimaryKey = new DataColumn[] { table.Columns["orderId"] }; // create relation dataSet.Relations.Add(dataSet.Tables["Customers"].Columns["customerId"], dataSet.Tables["Orders"].Columns["customerId"]); // populate the tables int orderId = 1; for(int customerId=1; customerId<=10; customerId++) { // add customer record dataSet.Tables["Customers"].Rows.Add( new object[] { customerId, string.Format("customer{0}", customerId) }); // add 5 order records for each customer for(int i=1; i<=5; i++) { dataSet.Tables["Orders"].Rows.Add( new object[] { orderId++, customerId, orderId * 10 }); } } return dataSet; } private static void PrintRowValues(DataRow[] rows, string label) { Console.WriteLine("\n{0}", label); if(rows.Length <= 0) { Console.WriteLine("no rows found"); return; } foreach(DataRow row in rows) { foreach(DataColumn column in row.Table.Columns) { Console.Write("\table {0}", row[column]); } Console.WriteLine(); } }
