Personally I would use an arraylist instead of an array. ArrayLists are just as efficient but allow you to do more. Using System.Collection; arraylist myList = new arraylist(); foreach(DataRow myRow in myDataSet.Rows) myList.Add(myRow[colNum].getvalue()); I haven't tested this code so you may have to tweak the sytax but it is essentially correct
