Save datatable as user setting

Question

I currently try to save a datatable as a user setting using die old \"properties.settings.default.save()\" method.

It does not work. My Settings don\'t get saved. ho

Answer 1

You can save the DataTable as an XML string to an ordinary String setting, like this:

 StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
 table.WriteXml(writer);
 Settings.Default.TableXml = writer.ToString();

You can then load it from the setting like this:

 StringReader reader = new StringReader(Settings.Default.TableXml);
 table.ReadXml(reader);
