Question

I have to select specific column from my DataTable using linq
I am using this code

ds.Table[0].AsEnumerable().Where<DataRow>(r=>r.Field<int>("productID")==23).CopyToDataTable();

~

But it is giving me all columns and I need only PRODUCTNAME , DESCRIPTION , PRICE

How I can write this query?

To expand a bit on @lazyberezovsky, you can use an anonymous type projection to get all of the fields you want:

ds.Table[0].AsEnumerable()
    .Where<DataRow>(r => r.Field<int>("productID") == 23)
    .Select(r => new { ProductName = r.Field<string>("productName"), 
                       Description = r.Field<string>("description"),
                       Price = r.Field<decimal>("price") });

I don’t know what name and type your product name, description, and price fields are, so you will have to substitute those.
