[c#] How to check if a column exists in a datatable

I have a datable generated with the content of a csv file. I use other information to map some column of the csv (now in the datatable) to information the user is required to fill.

In the best world the mapping would be alway possible. But this is not reality... So before I try to map the datatable column value I would need to check if that column even exist. If I don't do this check I have an ArgumentException.

Of course I can check this with some code like this :

try
{
    //try to map here.
}
catch (ArgumentException)
{ }

but I have for now 3 columns to map and some or all might be existing/missing

Is there a good way to check if a column exist in a datatable?

It is much more accurate to use IndexOf:

If dt.Columns.IndexOf("ColumnName") = -1 Then
    'Column not exist
End If

If the Contains is used it would not differentiate between ColumName and ColumnName2.

For Multiple columns you can use code similar to one given below.I was just going through this and found answer to check multiple columns in Datatable.

 private bool IsAllColumnExist(DataTable tableNameToCheck, List<string> columnsNames)
    {
        bool iscolumnExist = true;
        try
        {
            if (null != tableNameToCheck && tableNameToCheck.Columns != null)
            {
                foreach (string columnName in columnsNames)
                {
                    if (!tableNameToCheck.Columns.Contains(columnName))
                    {
                        iscolumnExist = false;
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
            else
            {
                iscolumnExist = false;
            }
        }            
        catch (Exception ex)
        {

        }
        return iscolumnExist;
    }

myDataTable.Columns.Contains("col_name")

You can look at the Columns property of a given DataTable, it is a list of all columns in the table.

private void PrintValues(DataTable table)
{
    foreach(DataRow row in table.Rows)
    {
        foreach(DataColumn column in table.Columns)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(row[column]);
        }
    }
}

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.datatable.columns.aspx

DataColumnCollection col = datatable.Columns;        
if (!columns.Contains("ColumnName1"))
{
   //Column1 Not Exists
}

if (columns.Contains("ColumnName2"))
{
   //Column2 Exists
}

Base on accepted answer, I made an extension method to check column exist in table as

I shared for whom concern.

 public static class DatatableHelper
 {
        public static bool ContainColumn(this DataTable table, string columnName)
        {
            DataColumnCollection columns = table.Columns;
            if (columns.Contains(columnName))
            {
                return true;
            }

            return false;
        }
}

And use as dtTagData.ContainColumn("SystemName")
