I'm getting a Nullexceptiontype

Hi,

I'm getting following error on my boolean variable assignment. Could you please help with this error (kind of urgent)? Thank You:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
If IsNothing(Initialized) = True Then
Initialized = False
PrevLoc = ""
End If
End Sub

Private Sub GridView1_RowDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowDataBound
Dim CurrentLoc As String
Dim drv As DataRowView

If IsNothing(Initialized) = False Then
Dim X
X = Initialized
MsgBox("Orhan")
X = True
Initialized = X
drv = e.Row.DataItem("Loc")
PrevLoc = drv.Row.Item("Loc")
PreviousColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue

Exit Sub
End If

If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow And Initialized = True Then

drv = e.Row.DataItem

CurrentLoc = drv("Loc").ToString()

If CurrentLoc <> PrevLoc Then
If PreviousColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue Then
e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green
PreviousColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green
Else
e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue
PreviousColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue
End If

End If

End If

PrevLoc = CurrentLoc

End Sub

Which chapter / page / exercise is this referring to? Is this even from an ASPX project? (MsgBox seems like a bad idea for a web app).

Also, which "following error" are you talking about it? When do you get it? What's the exact error message and location / line?

And finally, what is it you're trying to accomplish?

Hi Imar,

I was using MsgBox to debug my code. I'm trying to have on my grid rows if Grid column (Loc) changes then change color from green to blue or blue to green. Because this web app will be displayed on two 70 in. TV monitors ;) My customer requested this for my final requirement task.

I hope this helps. Thank you!

See my previous message. Can't help you without proper info. Does this relate to a specific exercise or page in my book? If not, you might be better off find a better forum category here (VB, ASP.NET?) to get better responses.

Cheers,

Imar
