InvalidCastException on UltraWebGrid Infragistics asp.net - asp.net

I am getting an
InvalidCastException was unhandled by user:
Conversion from String "ORDERDATE" to type "Integer" is not valid.
The error hits when it gets to the lines with band.SortedColumns.
Any idea why i get this error?
I have the same code for infragistics UltraWinGrid vb.net and I don't get that error.
UltraWebGrid1.DataSource = Nothing
myDataName = Generic.getPrevOrder(dt, username)
UltraWebGrid1.DataSource = dt
Dim band As Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.UltraGridBand = UltraWebGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands(0)
UltraWebGrid1.DisplayLayout.ViewType = Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.ViewType.OutlookGroupBy
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERDATE"), True)
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERID"), False)

This could be nothing, but out of curiosity, what happens if you swap these around:
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERDATE"), True)
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERID"), False)
to
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERID"), False)
band.SortedColumns.Add(band.Columns("ORDERDATE"), True)
It could be that the schema of the layout (UltraWebGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands(0)) is different to what is expected? I can't see why it should make a difference, but it's worth ruling it out.

need help update a datatable cell value

I have a trivial question about updating a datatable MyDT. I googled and found several approach and got compile errors. Here is the code and here is what I tried with the error. Any help is greatly appreciated. BTW, I am using asp.net framework 2.0 and VB.NET
MyDT.Rows[1][4] = "4NF" ' Property access must assign to the property or use it value
row.Item("New_Column") = "4NF" ' Input string was not in a correct format.
Couldn't store <4NF> in New_Column Column. Expect type is Byte.
row["New_Column"] = "4NF" ' Expression is not a method
Dim StatusCode As String
For Each row As DataRow In MyDT.Rows
StatusCode= row.Item("ThisColumn").ToString()
If StatusCode= "NONF" Then
MyDT.Rows[1][4] = "4NF"
End If
Next row
You should either:
Store data as String in your DataTable
Do a conversion
Here how the conversion looks
MyDT.Rows[1][4] = Convert.ToByte("4NF")

asp ERROR MESSAGE

How I can solve this error message
Microsoft VBScript runtime error
'800a01a8' Object required: 'lUATRef'
/cmgtest/transaction/viewPCReqForm.asp,
line 284
this is some source code that I wrote below
function checkUATReq(aUATRef)
Dim correctness,lUATRef,uatRef
correctness = False
lUATRef = aUATRef
uatRef = lUATRef.Substring(1,2)
rwriteln uatRef
'sqlCheckUATReq = "select * from PC_DETAIL where ID ='"&uatReqRef&"'"
'rwriteln uatReqRef
End function
Seems like your function isn't getting a parameter passed to it. Check whether aUATRef is getting initialized.
In VBScript, Strings aren't objects. You should use the Mid function to get a portion of a string:
uatRef = Mid(IUATRef, 1, 2)

Getting "Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'"

I had inherited a website to do general maintenance on. The web pages are ASP pages but the bulk of my work has been with the html/css. The site has been working fine for a number of years, that is until now. When I try to load pages that are containing VB script I receive the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required: '[object]'
/new_products.asp, line 12
the name of the asp page changes based on the page that is being called, but the line reference is the same.
The code that is generating the error is as follows:
Dim objXMLHTTP
Dim coordinates
Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
ip = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
objXMLHTTP.Open "GET", "http://www.ippages.com/xml/?ip="&ip&"&get=country", False
objXMLHTTP.Send
Set xmldoc = objXMLHTTP.responseXML
country = xmldoc.selectSingleNode("ip_address/lookups/lookup_country").text
set objXMLHTTP=nothing
theCountry = Trim(UCASE(country))
If theCountry = "CA-CANADA" then
Bags = "13.99"
SB4Pack = "14.00"
currency_code = "CAD"
lc = "CA"
Pref = "$"
ShipType = 1
ElseIf theCountry = "US-UNITED STATES" then
Bags = "13.99"
SB4Pack = "14.00"
currency_code = "USD"
lc = "US"
Pref = "$"
ShipType = 2
Else
Bags = "8.00"
SB4Pack = "11.00"
currency_code = "GBP"
lc = "UK"
Pref = "£"
ShipType = 2
End If
With my extremely limited knowledge of VB I have done my best to try and figure out why the code has stopped working, but I am stumped. Any and all help is greatly greatly appreciated.
Since this is an environment specific issue which started to popup recently as you mentioned... No sure statement can be provided. You need to investigate it. What one can do is to suggest some thing. I believe your problem is one of this statement.
Set xmldoc = objXMLHTTP.responseXML
country = xmldoc.selectSingleNode("ip_address/lookups/lookup_country").text
Probably this value is not coming or Null or Nothing.Try to print the value of country if it's coming as Null, Nothing... Later when you try to change the case of country.... You can use tools to capture the Http request and response tools like Fidler to verify what is coming in lookup_country as a value or whether you are getting this node or not.
Also where is theCountry is declared. If it's dynamic variable then check if some one enabled OptionExplicit??

Problems with If Statement (ASP.NET)

Dim custEmail As String
Dim inputEmail As String
custEmail = dt.Rows(0).Item("email")
inputEmail = email_add.Text
if (custEmail.toString() == inputEmail.toString() ){
label1.Text = custEmail
}
End If
This code is giving an error: Compiler Error Message: BC30201: Expression expected.
I just basically want to check if two values are equal but its saying something about expression expected although i've given the expression to evaluate.
The above is a mix of vb.net and c# syntax. You can use either in .net with success but not both at the same time. Get rid of the { and } to stick with vb.
Looks like you are mixing C# and VB.Net. Assuming you are using VB.Net
Replace the '{' with Begin IF and remove the '}'.

how to fix EntityReference error

I'm attempt to commit mostly all new objects to the database, apart from the user. I'm new to entity framework and im not sure how to combat this error.
Error on line _orderDetail.CalenderItems.Add(_newCalendarItem):
The object could not be added or attached because its EntityReference has an EntityKey property value that does not match the EntityKey for this object.
Code:
_db.Orders.AddObject(_order)
For Each n In _namelist
_db.Names.AddObject(n)
Next
For Each n In _namelist
For i As Integer = 1 To _copies
Dim _orderDetail As New OrderDetail
_db.OrderDetails.AddObject(_orderDetail)
_orderDetail.Name = n
_orderDetail.Order = _order
For Each c In _calendarItems
Dim _newCalendarItem As New CalenderItem
_newCalendarItem.Image = c.Image
_newCalendarItem.YearMonth = c.YearMonth
_orderDetail.CalenderItems.Add(_newCalendarItem)
Next
Next
Next
_db.SaveChanges()
I believe I need to add add an entity reference but I'm not sure how. Can anyone point me in the right direction
As dnndeveloper says, your answer is ObjectContext.CreateObject<T>.
So you're gonna want -
Dim ci = _db.CreateObject(Of CalenderItem)()
ci.OrderDetail = _orderDetail
ci.Image = c.image
ci.YearMonth = c.YearMonth
_orderDetail.CalenderItems.Add(ci)
or something along those lines. I've run into this issue a couple of times and this has worked so far.
HTH
Instead of creating a "new calendaritem" you should use _db.OrderDetails.CalendarItem.New() etc... either that or set _newCalendarItem.EntityKey to null.
