The following example uses the GetParentRow property to print a value from each parent row of each DataRow in a DataTable.

private void GetParentRowForTable ( DataTable thisTable, DataRelation relation, 
      DataRowVersion version ) {
   if ( thisTable == null ) {return;}
   // for each row in the table, print column 1 of the parent DataRow.
   DataRow parentRow;
   foreach ( DataRow row in thisTable.Rows ) {
      parentRow = row.GetParentRow ( relation, version );
      Response.Write ( "\t child row: " + row [ 1 ] );
      Response.Write ( "\t parent row: " + parentRow [ 1 ] + "<br>" );
   }
}

private void CallGetParentRowForTable ( ) {
   // an example of calling the function.
   DataTable thisTable = myDataSet.Tables [ "Products" ];
   DataRelation relation = thisTable.ParentRelations [ 0 ];
   // print only original versions of parent rows.
   GetParentRowForTable ( thisTable, relation,
      DataRowVersion.Original );
}
