Hi John Please use like this. You can only store string value in string array. DataTable dt = new DataTable(); string[] x = new string[100]; string[] y = new string[100]; for (int i = 0; i { x[i] = dt.Rows[i][0].ToString(); y[i] = Convert.ToDecimal(dt.Rows[i][1]).ToString(); }

Nikhil am getting the error Cannot implicitly convert type 'string[]' to 'decimal[]' at this line of code which i have highlighted. y[i] = Convert.ToDecimal(dt.Rows[i][1]);
