I have a new DataTable that I want to add columns to. I have found that you
need to do this using the DataColumnCollection class, but I am still having
trouble doing this. Can somebody give me an example? Thanks.
 
On page 535 you'll find an example kinda like this:

Dim dt As New DataTable
Dim dc As New DataColumn("MyColumnName", GetType(Integer))
dt.Columns.Add(dc)

The DataTable can be a new one (like this) or an existing DataTable
populated by Fill or Load.

Nathan,

As addition to Bill:

Be aware that using the standard procedures an added column will never be
written to the database.
