This error is because you are refering to the ItemArray. ItemArray
returns an array of objects that contains the values of each column in
the DataRow by ordinal. Simply remove the ".ItemArray" and that will
work.

DataRow dr = (DataRow)ds.Tables[0].Rows[1];

In the future, you might want to actually look at the error
description. It specifically says that it can't convert an array of
objects "object[]" to a DataRow.
Happy coding!
