System.IO.File.Copy not copying and no error

I'd suggest wrapping the copy in a Try/Catch block just to be sure. Then
throw a new exception, outputing your source/destination paths along with
the original exception:

Try
System.IO.File.Copy(Source,Dest)
Catch ex as exception
throw new Exception("Source: '" & source & "' - Dest: '" & dest &
"'",ex)
end try

also, put a break point at the Throw, and examine your variables.

ah yes i neglected to mention that i already did that, and the value
of 'dest' is correct. it is the same as the hard-coded string and yet
it fails...

damn i hate this stuff!!!

but thx for the input...

System.NullReferenceException: Object variable or With block variable not set

Please help i am getting the following error:
System.NullReferenceException: Object variable or With block variable not set

on this line.

TextBox1.Text = Trim(Row.Item("eng_lbl"))

I am trying to display the values of a record from the table in 4 text box fields.
I am new to asp.net. Please kindly help.

Dim mydataset As New DataSet
Dim myadapter As New SqlDataAdapter
Dim strId As String = Request.QueryString("lbl_Id")
Dim Row
Dim myCommand As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
Dim sql As String = "select * from tbl_labels where id =" & CInt(strId)
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
MyCommand = New SqlCommand(sql, MyConnection)
myadapter = New SqlDataAdapter(myCommand)
 mydataset.Clear()
 myadapter.Fill(mydataset)
If mydataset.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then
TextBox1.Text = Trim(Row.Item("eng_lbl"))
 TextBox2.Text = Trim(Row.Item("esp_lbl"))
 TextBox3.Text = Trim(Row.Item("fr_lbl"))
 TextBox4.Text = Trim(Row.Item("ger_lbl"))
 End If
End If

You're not assign row to anything..

I.E.

Dim Row As DataRow
If mydataset.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then
 Row = mydataset.Tables(0).Rows(0)
TextBox1.Text = Trim(Row.Item("eng_lbl"))
 TextBox2.Text = Trim(Row.Item("esp_lbl"))
 TextBox3.Text = Trim(Row.Item("fr_lbl"))
 TextBox4.Text = Trim(Row.Item("ger_lbl"))
End If

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...

Karl
