//Convert DataTable collection as Dyanamic collection.
var dynamicCollection = new ObservableCollection<dynamic>();
foreach (DataRow row in dataTableCollection.Rows)
{
dynamic dyn = new ExpandoObject();
dynamicCollection.Add(dyn);
foreach (DataColumn column in dataTableCollection.Columns)
{
var dic = (IDictionary<string, object>)dyn;
dic[column.ColumnName] = row[column];
}
}
DynamicOrders = dynamicCollection;
