Source:: DataRow.cs

Gets the parent row of a DataRow using the specified DataRelation.

public:
 System::Data::DataRow ^ GetParentRow(System::Data::DataRelation ^ relation);

public System.Data.DataRow? GetParentRow(System.Data.DataRelation? relation);

public System.Data.DataRow GetParentRow(System.Data.DataRelation relation);

member this.GetParentRow : System.Data.DataRelation -> System.Data.DataRow

Public Function GetParentRow (relation As DataRelation) As DataRow

Parameters

relation: DataRelation

The DataRelation to use.

Returns

DataRow

The parent DataRow of the current row.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

The relation does not belong to the DataTable.

-or-

The row is null.

DataException

A child row has multiple parents.

InvalidConstraintException

This row does not belong to the child table of the DataRelation object.

RowNotInTableException

The row does not belong to a table.

Examples

The following example uses the GetParentRow to return the child DataRow objects for every child DataRelation in a DataTable. The value of each column in the row is then printed.

private void GetParentRowForTable(DataTable thisTable,
    DataRelation relation)
{
    if(thisTable ==null){return;}
    // For each row in the table, print column 1
    // of the parent DataRow.
    DataRow parentRow;
    foreach(DataRow row in thisTable.Rows)
    {
        parentRow = row.GetParentRow(relation);
        Console.Write("\table child row: " + row[1]);
        Console.Write("\table parent row: " + parentRow[1]+ "\n");
    }
}

private void CallGetParentRowForTable()
{
    // An example of calling the function.
    DataTable thisTable = DataSet1.Tables["Products"];
    DataRelation relation = thisTable.ParentRelations[0];
    GetParentRowForTable(thisTable, relation);
}

Private Sub GetParentRowForTable _
   (thisTable As DataTable, relation As DataRelation)
    If thisTable Is Nothing Then
        Return
    End If
    ' For each row in the table, print column 1 
    ' of the parent DataRow.
    Dim parentRow As DataRow
    Dim row As DataRow
    For Each row In  thisTable.Rows
        parentRow = row.GetParentRow(relation)
        Console.Write(ControlChars.Tab & " child row: " _
           & row(1).ToString())
        Console.Write(ControlChars.Tab & " parent row: " _
           & parentRow(1).ToString() & ControlChars.Cr)
    Next row
End Sub
  
Private Sub CallGetParentRowForTable()
    ' An example of calling the function.
    Dim thisTable As DataTable = DataSet1.Tables("Products")
    Dim relation As DataRelation = thisTable.ParentRelations(0)
    GetParentRowForTable(thisTable, relation)
End Sub

Remarks

In a DataSet, the collection of all parent DataRelation objects for the data set is returned by the GetParentRows method.

The DataTable also contains a collection of DataRelation objects, returned by the ParentRelations property.
