Create Pivot Table In C#

Step 1

Create Class file as Pivot.cs  and copy the below text and save in your file .

Example Pivot View

Call PivotData function in your page like below example.

  Pivot pvt = new Pivot(dt);

                DataTable pivotTable = new DataTable();

                pivotTable = pvt.PivotData("Designation", "Salary", AggregateFunction.Sum, "Year");
