Concatenating DataColumn

How can I concatenate values of two data columns and show the concatenated
value in the third column. I am using a XML file which contains data and I am
using DataSet’s ReadXml method to populate DataSet.

I want FirstName and LastName column to show as one column containing full
name. for eg. “Shane” “Warne” as “Shane Warne”

Thanks

You could add a Column and set the Expression property to "FirstName + ' ' +
LastName"
