    var properties = typeof(T).GetProperties();
    return dt.AsEnumerable().Select(row =>
    {
        var objT = Activator.CreateInstance<T>();
        foreach (var pro in properties)
        {
            if (columnNames.Contains(pro.Name))
            {
                 PropertyInfo pI = objT.GetType().GetProperty(pro.Name);
                 pro.SetValue(objT, row[pro.Name] == DBNull.Value ? null : Convert.ChangeType(row[pro.Name], pI.PropertyType));
            }
        }
        return objT;
   }).ToList();
