like do this after you find a matching id:
for(int i=0;i<pcRow.ItemArray.Length;i++){
if(pcRow.ItemArray[i] != serverRow.ItemArray[i])
{then this item is different in this column of the row}
}

If i found the item which is different from the pcXML doc, how can i make it copy or clone to from serverXML to pcXML?

I tried this:

serverRow.ItemArray.Clone(outputXML);

its correct code, no errors, but it doesnt work. I have no idea how its possible to clone from file to file.

Also i keep seeing this in the console when i execute this program:

'Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute'

What does that mean?

Thanks in advance!

look at what i did to copy a different row!

 Help with Code Tags 
 C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
					DataRow newRow = outputXML.Tables[0].NewRow();	//make a new row with the tables scheme
					newRow.ItemArray = pcRow.ItemArray;				//copy over the contents of the row
					outputXML.Tables[0].Rows.Add(newRow);
					DataRow newRow = outputXML.Tables[0].NewRow();	//make a new row with the tables scheme
					newRow.ItemArray = pcRow.ItemArray;				//copy over the contents of the row
					outputXML.Tables[0].Rows.Add(newRow);

you make a row object with the same shceme as the table then copy to source itemarray to the new row, then append the row to the talbe
