Try this Merge option,
ds.Merge(DataSet);

Splitting that two datatables in separate dataset.

Hi Chandru, Thank you very much for your kind reply. I did that method, but in that my problem is, i have 3 rows, 8 columns in table1 and 3 rows, 8 columns in table2. First 2 columns of both the tables are same. Always i will get row count is same for both the tables. So, if i use this merge method then it creates a table with 6 rows, and also after the 8th columns has no values in first 3 rows and first 8 columns has empty values in second 3 rows.

if(firstDataTable.Rows.Count > 0)
{
   //Add all Coulmns and values to 3rd datatable.
 
}
if(firstDataTable.Rows.Count > 0)
{
   //Add all Coulmns and values to 3rd datatable.
   
}

In that same way Add second datatable to third.
