I am importing an Excel spreadsheet, turning it into a dataset and inserting the results into SQL Server (only 100 rows).
I am having an issue with one of the date columns in Excel, which can have a value or not. The "F" column is the one that may be blank and this is the error I get: Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'String' is not valid.
How can I add a check to the Dim F As Date = CDate(row(5)) to handle a null?

At run time my application gives an error of "Conversion from type "DBNull" to type "String" is not valid. In my form only one field - Add_info is an optional field which might be filled or not by the user. Before, I had an error when an apostrophe was used so i updated the code as highlighted below. This in return removed the apostrophe error but generated an error whenever there is an empty additional field. [code]

I am pulling data from a local MSSQL database using a stored procedure, then send the data to a web service. Every part of the component works well except for a pesky problem will a DBNull being returned from the DataRow field, when I know that the field is not null and has valid data. The database and associated INSERT statements that add to this field are designed to not allow NULL entries. When I debug break the program on or right before the line that throws the error I see that the field has valid data for the current row.If I add a null check to the code (as below) the operation continues as normal:
Dim dataResultsTable = Me.myViewTableAdapter.GetData(int)
For Each myDataRow In dataResultsTable.Rows

Why is the read operation returning DBNull instead of the data in the database?
EDIT: Just to be clear, the operation does return the proper data, but the data is not being saved into the variable.

I'm using a date/time picker control and sending the db value to it. I know that the value is null, but I don't understand why the Picker can't be blank. Is there a way to let it be blank? Or should I set up a way to check for nulls and assign today's date or something just in case?
When I close my form without saving I want to check if the data on my form has changed since the last time I saved the data.This peace of code, which I included at the bottom always worked fine.Except when I compade a DateTimePicker with a null value in the db.Than I get the error "Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'Date' is not valid."Probably on this peace of

I am getting this exception from the following VB.NET code for only certain months: System. InvalidCastException: Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'Date' is not valid.It happens on the line:if CDate(dRow("CompleteDate")).ToString("d") = arrWeekYear(i, 1).ToString("d") Then.If I understand this correctly, then the problem is I am trying to compare some NULL values for CompleteDate to a non-NULL value.However for some of the more recent records, it does not. But I am able to get output from the T-SQL query with same date range and there are no errors; it runs quickly also. And I examined this T-SQL query for both "Date_ Completed" and "Review_Date" NULL values, but either way,"CompleteDate" was always = NON-Null value.So I do not understand how this is happening.[code]When I add this line above the error-causing line above, my report times out for these months.If Not dRow("CompleteDate") Is System.DBNull.Value Then

I now have SQL Parameters set up and I'm using them to save/delete/add my data. This all works well, except when it's trying to save a combobox to the datatable it appears with the error above.Majority of my comboboxes have datasources, and the valuemembers of these are the actual list items, not the ID's of the list items.I'm not sure why this error could be happening, I'm fairly sure I've connected everything to the binding source correctly; I've checked it a few times.Does anybody know what the cause of this could be? I've looked around a bit and I haven't found much
View 7 RepliesI am getting the error "Conversion from type 'DataGridViewTextBoxCell' to type 'String' is not valid." When trying to display a cell from DGV in a listbox.I have my variable for the cell reference as follows:
Dim a As Object

To insert it in the listbox as follows:
lstLetter.Items.Add(String.Format(a))
I tried:
lstLetter.Items.Add(a)
This will not actually display the entry inside the referenced cell, it shows this in my listbox instead:
DataGridView TextBoxCell { ColumnIndex=4, RowIndex=1 }
