I have 2 datatables each containing 100 datarows each. in these 2 datatables 20 rows are common (exist in both data tables). When i merge these 2 datatables how i can eleminate the duplicate datarows without effecting the performance because the datarows in the datatables might increase in future.

thanks in advance

try like this
DataSet ds=new DataSet();
ds.Tables.Add(Table1);
ds.Tables.Add(Table2);
ds.Relations.Add("TheRelation", Table1.Columns["a"], Table2.Columns["a"]);
Table2.Columns.Add("b", GetType(System.String), "Parent.b")
