In my project there are two datasets dsNames
and dsDetails
.
I dont know about SQL. Here I am connecting to XML and Textfiles.
dtNames
EmployeeName EmployeeRole
a 2
b 3
c 4
dtDetails
Empid EmployeeName EmpCity EmployeeRole
101 a abc 3 //EmpRole not equal to above table EmpRole
102 b abc 3
103 c xyz 4
104 d pqr 5
105 e rst 6
I want to relate these two datasets based on the EmployeeName
and EmployeeRole
(here comparing to dsNames
) and store the result in another DataSet dsMain
(table from dsDetails
) and then divide the two dataSets in according to comparison like matchedDataTable
and unmatchedDataTable
.
I know this can be done using DataRelation or RowFilter but i cant get a thought how to do this because there are two columns to be compared with other datatable two columns which i dont know.(I am beginner in .net)
I tried the below code: (not working)
foreach (DataRow rwMain in dsNames.Tables[0].Rows)
{
foreach (DataRow rwSub in dsDetails.Tables[0].Rows)
{
if (rwMain["EmployeeName"].Equals(rwSub["EmployeeName"]))
{
if (rwMain["EmployeeRole"].Equals(rwSub["EmployeeRole"]))
{
// Matched DataTable
}
else
{
//Unmatched DataTable
}
}
}
}
I am doing something wrong in the above code and also it looks me i am not doing it in a right way.
Please no linq because i know it but i cant use it in my project.
please assist.
