----------------------------------------------------------- From: rags_rao Message 2 in Discussion the problen id DBNULL, when the value is null in ur recordset. reader[colName] return DBNull which connot be cast to string. but all objects implement ToString() and so does our dbnull. personally i like to use "as" for all reference types 1. it doesnt throw errors 2. if cast fails it assign null ex: string x = reader[colName] as string; is equivalent to, string x = (reader[colName] is string)?(string)reader[colName]:null; ----------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this e-mail, or change how often it arrives, go to your E-mail Settings. http://groups.msn.com/bdotnet/_emailsettings.msnw Need help?
