Great post. Ran into same issue as Sakthi with nullable type. Here is what worked for me:

Type colType = prop.PropertyType;
if ((colType.IsGenericType))
{
colType = colType.GetGenericArguments()[0];
}
tb.Columns.Add(prop.Name, colType);

Excellent post.. It helpmed a lot in time… Really superb.

I have got an error in CreateTable method. Err is “DataSet does not support System.Nullable”. Solution for this is before adding the column to the table just do a check as below.

Type colType = prop.PropertyType;
if ((colType.IsGenericType) && (colType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable)))
{
colType = colType.GetGenericArguments()[0];
}
destTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(prop.Name, colType));

Correct me if am wrong. Hope this helps someone.

Thanks.
