System.NullReferenceException: Object variable or With block varia

Hello -
I don't know if it's possible or not, but I am trying to bind data from a
Sql Server DB to the header in a datalist. I received the above error
message.
First, is it possible to bind data from a DB to the header and if so, what
could be causing the error message?
Alternatively, can you only put text in the header of a datalist?

SandySandy,
You didn't provide any code many it very difficult to imagine what the error
is...
Yyou can't bind data to a header in the typical databinding sense.
Information is bound row-by-row to the individual items...There's no row
assigned to the header...you can set values of the header progamatically
however...
myGrid.Columns(0).HeaderText =
myDataSet.Tables(0).Rows(0)("Blah").ToString()
or something similar...
