Por acaso encontrei o seguinte:

Ao procurar algo semelhante, apenas, especificamente para .net 2.0
Estou assumindo que o OP estava procurando distinto ao usar DataTable.Select (). (Select () não suporta distintos)
Então, aqui está o código do link acima:
class DataTableHelper
{
public DataTable SelectDistinct(string TableName, DataTable SourceTable, string FieldName)
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable(TableName);
dt.Columns.Add(FieldName, SourceTable.Columns[FieldName].DataType);
object LastValue = null;
foreach (DataRow dr in SourceTable.Select("", FieldName))
{
if ( LastValue == null || !(ColumnEqual(LastValue, dr[FieldName])) )
{
LastValue = dr[FieldName];
dt.Rows.Add(new object[]{LastValue});
}
}
return dt;
}
private bool ColumnEqual(object A, object B)
{
// Compares two values to see if they are equal. Also compares DBNULL.Value.
// Note: If your DataTable contains object fields, then you must extend this
// function to handle them in a meaningful way if you intend to group on them.
if ( A == DBNull.Value && B == DBNull.Value ) // both are DBNull.Value
return true;
if ( A == DBNull.Value || B == DBNull.Value ) // only one is DBNull.Value
return false;
return ( A.Equals(B) ); // value type standard comparison
}
}
