Following single line of code will avoid the duplicate rows of a DataTable   dataTable DefaultView ToTable true   employeeid      Where    first parameter in ToTable   is a boolean which indicates whether you want distinct rows or not  second parameter in the ToTable   is the column name based on which we have to select distinct rows  Only these columns will be in the returned datatable     The same can be done from a DataSet  by accessing a specific DataTable   dataSet Tables  Employee   DefaultView ToTable true   employeeid

You can use like that   data is DataTable  data DefaultView ToTable true   Id    Name    Role    DC1    DC2    DC3    DC4    DC5    DC6    DC7        but performance will be down  try to use below code   data AsEnumerable   Distinct System Data DataRowComparer Default  ToList        For Performance   http   onerkaya blogspot com 2013 01 distinct-dataviewtotable-vs-linq html

I just happened to find this  http   support microsoft com default aspx scid kb en-us 326176 1  While looking for something similar  only  specifically for  net 2 0  Im assuming the OP was looking for distinct while using DataTable Select     Select   doesn t support distinct   So here is the code from the above link   class DataTableHelper        public DataTable SelectDistinct string TableName  DataTable SourceTable  string FieldName                   DataTable dt   new DataTable TableName           dt Columns Add FieldName  SourceTable Columns FieldName  DataType            object LastValue   null           foreach  DataRow dr in SourceTable Select     FieldName                         if    LastValue    null      ColumnEqual LastValue  dr FieldName                                     LastValue   dr FieldName                    dt Rows Add new object   LastValue                                     return dt             private bool ColumnEqual object A  object B                    Compares two values to see if they are equal  Also compares DBNULL Value             Note  If your DataTable contains object fields  then you must extend this            function to handle them in a meaningful way if you intend to group on them           if   A    DBNull Value  amp  amp  B    DBNull Value       both are DBNull Value             return true           if   A    DBNull Value    B    DBNull Value       only one is DBNull Value             return false           return   A Equals B         value type standard comparison

The most simple solution is to use LINQ and then transform the result to a DataTable         data is a DataTable that you want to change     DataTable result   data AsEnumerable   Distinct   CopyToDataTable  lt  DataRow  gt        This is valid only for asp net 4 0   Framework and it needs the reference to System Data DataSetExtensions as Ivan Ferrer Villa pointed out
