Just saw the replies ....I think i need to be more specific on my problem I have bunch of files(xml ones) from which i gather certain node values and bind it to Listview. For this i have used XMl to linq technique and have binded them var MethodList = from Elements in XpedDoc.Descendants(ns +  Method ) select Elements; foreach ( var XpedElement in MethodList) { do something } LstNodeView.Items.Add(ndXped); // adding to my list view where ndXped is custom class Now after this I want export all listitems into datatable to export into Excel file Hope this helps

Why aren't you going directly from your datasource to Excel or CSV file. I don't really see why you would grab the data from the listview. If you are trying to select certain data then just create a List and make the datasource of the listview the List then use the List to export.
