Examples
The following example returns the ColumnMapping property value for each column in a table.

{
foreach (DataColumn dataColumn in dataTable.Columns)
{
Console.WriteLine(dataColumn.ColumnMapping.ToString());
}
}
Private Sub GetColumnMapping(ByVal dataTable As DataTable)

For Each dataColumn In dataTable.Columns

Next dataColumn

Remarks
The MappingType enumeration is used when getting or setting the ColumnMapping property of the DataColumn. The property determines how a column's values will be written when the WriteXml method is called on a DataSet to write the data and schema out as an XML document.
