datarowview vs datarow

hey all,

DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)((GridViewRow)lbl.NamingContainer).DataItem;

i found this snippet on the net which works correctly in its context. It's
datasource is coming from a Typed DataSet.

Well, i modified the GridView's DataSource to use an UnTyped DataSet but i'm
getting an error saying
"Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.DataRow' to type
'System.Data.DataRowView'.

Can someone please confirm why this is so? or if this makes any sense?

thanks,
rodchar
