I've got a detailsview control on a page. The table that it interacts with has a DateTime column in it. This column is nullable, and a lot of the records have null for that value. In the EditItemTemplate I've got a calendar control. When I try to put the DetailsView into edit mode, I get the following error message:
System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code
Message=Specified cast is not valid.
Source=App_Web_srpmlyjd
StackTrace:

I am convinced that the problem is the null values in the DateTime column of the table. I've done some web searches on this, and some have suggested placing some dummy values into that column, but that seems more like a kludge, rather than a solution. How do I keep nulls in the table, and yet not have that preceeding error come up when a user tries to edit the selected record?

I have a class with properties for stuff like FileNumber, OpenedDate, ClosedDate etc.When I Initialise the class I set the datetime variables to Date.MinValue.Then when I populate my textboxes I check if the value of the date variables are Date.Minvalue and I set the textbox text to an empty string.
Code:
If(File.OpenedDate = Date.MinValue, String.Empty, File.OpenedDate.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd"))
However whe I try to save the data to my sql server db I get a datetime out of range error. What is the correct way to handle these null values in my date columns?

I am dealing with dynamic fields in a for loop and now I need to retrieve the values that are being typed in the dynamic fields, any idea how can I do that? 2)also when I click the submit button, upon postback, the dynamic fields have gone missing, have been trying to slove that, but i did not, anyone knows how to deal with this? kinda urgent :x
3) and How do you compare the 2 dynamic fields? For eg: Im comparing the tbSch[i] to tbSch[i], so that the dates cannot be the same, am using a compare validator, but it throws me error that im comparing the same fields :) even though i change to ("tbSch" + i) for both, sorry Will provide my code snippet as follow :D tbNum is a textbox where user enter numbers and click generate
protected void btnGen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
for (int i = 0; i < Convert.ToInt32(tbNum.Text); i++)
{
// label and textbox needed
Label lblSch = new Label();
TextBox tbSch = new TextBox();
Label lblWsGrp = new Label();
DropDownList ddlWsGrp = new DropDownList();
CompareValidator cvSame = new CompareValidator();
cvSame.ID = "cvSame" + i;
cvSame.ErrorMessage = "Date cannot be the same";
cvSame.Operator = ValidationCompareOperator.NotEqual;
cvSame.Type = ValidationDataType.Date;
cvSame.Display = ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic;
cvSame.EnableViewState = true;
cvSame.ControlToValidate = (tbSch.ID);<<<<< what should be the value in here?
cvSame.ControlToCompare = (tbSch.ID);<<<<<<<<<< and here?
//schdule date
lblSch.ID = "lblSch" + i;
lblSch.Text = "Session Date : ";
lblSch.EnableViewState = true;
tbSch.ID = "tbSch" + i;
tbSch.Width = 210;
tbSch.Height = 27;

I have a typical gridview/formview master control setup. When I try to update or insert I don't get any errors but it also doesn't work. When I try to insert data all I get are null values and when I update, none of the values are updated. The formview looks like its working, but just doesn't. The primary key is an identity and it auto-increments by one.

In the detailsview, I set a edit item template (a bounded dropdownlist control). But in database there are some data not set to a value (null). After clicking edit button in detailsview control I get the error about the value problem (Because after populating the dropdownlist, there is no item as null in it. )How to set dropdownlist selected index when the data is "null"?

have a form where I insert record via DetailView control. I have some string fields. For each string field (nvarchar in sql) I have defined the Default Value in the SQL SERVER (2008) as ''. Also I have added to each InsertParameter of the DetailsView a DefaultValue="".Yet still, if the user enters no value for one of the string fields, NULL is inserted into the table.
View 4 RepliesThis is an ASP.NET 3.5 web app written in C# using VS2008 and connecting to an MS SQL backend. It is using ad hoc queries in a strongly typed dataset to pull from the database. This query (shortened for clarity) is designed to allow optional input of parameters (a requirement) or pull all records if no parameters are input. It works normally in SQL Server Management Studio with the addition of Declare and Set statements and it works normally in the TableAdapter's Query Builder:

The markup contains this ObjectDataSource, which is tied to the TableAdapter with the above query:

The problem I'm having is in passing null values to the ODS to feed to the query. Tying the ODS parameters directly to the dropdownlists and textboxes didn't work. Got an error message that there was a mismatched data type. Tried several combinations of code to feed the right values to the ODS parameters but couldn't find one that worked. Is the problem in the query or am I setting up the code-behind wrong? Here's the code:

Whenever you turn off the visibility of a column in Gridview, on Edit, the value becomes null because its never bound. The only way I know of stopping this behavoir is to put it in the DataKeyName list. Is there any other way to prevent this? I have quite a few columns that will not be displayed in this "release" but I want there for future extensibility. Also, in some cases these values will be used for calculations but the user should not see them. Is there no toggle property for "non-visible" items to remain "unchanged" or something of the sort?

m using a listview and an object data source in my application, with optimistic concurrency control.i have only 2 columns in the listview: category_ID and category_name;when i try to delete an item, an error message is generated saying that one of the old values populated by the list view is null, i performed debugging, and found that the category_ID old value is populated correctly, while the category_name old value is populated as nulli can't find a problem in the code, i executed the delete command in the query builder directly and it worked fine,

I have a Sql Data Source that queries my class database. What I'm trying to do to save myself some landscape is to check a checkbox if any of the pre-requisite fields are not empty. I have this laying inside a gridview. My code doesn't error out but it doesnt' do anything either.
[Code]....
My query is like this:
[Code]....
So in a nutshell, if there is any value in PR1 - PR7, I want to check my checkbox in the gridview.
Why would i be getting NullReferenceException if im setting the labels with values?In my page_load i have the following:
Label hireMess = (Label)FormView1.FindControl("hireMess");
Label hireEnd = (Label)FormView1.FindControl("hireEnd");
HyperLink hyptry = (HyperLink)FormView1.FindControl("hyptry");
and right below that i have 1 condition to check for and then set the Text value of the 2 labels.hireMess.Text = "It Was Successfully!";hireEnd.Text ="You will be re-directed to your Pool in 10 seconds.";I compared the page to production and eveyrthing is the same and production doesnt have any issues.. not sure why its coming up null.The error comes up for the first label:Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Description:An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.Source Error:

I would like to ask a question on the visual basic codes to loop the gridview to retrieve the values and based on the values, it will be provided as parameters to update to the database table using stored procedure.
Firstly, I have a gridview named grvProduct. The page (ui) will be loaded with data from the database with the use of stored procedures. And only certain values can be edited through the use of template in gridview. So based on those edited values, I'm supposed to pass these values as parameters to the stored procedure which will then update a database table.
Let say, I have 3 records retrieved from the database and displayed in the gridview. And I would like to edit a values in the 3 records, how do I do batch update and pass those parameters to the stored procedure? I went to debug and step through the visual basic codes and realised there were too many arguments specified because I actually loop the gridview.
Below is my visual basic codes:
[Code]....
Below is my Stored Procedure code:
[Code]....
I believe it is the error in the looping of the gridview which results that I could not batch update the data/values.
