I'll check it out closer but I don't think it will work since the datasets are typed. The tables are already there I just want to "copy" the data from one typed dataset table to another typed dataset table.
Currently I do this using foreach row in one table and AddTableNameRow() in the other table. It works, but doesn't look pretty :)
