Hi All

foreach (DataGridViewRow r in dg.SelectedRows)
{
    fs = new FileStream(fp, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
    StreamReader rd = new StreamReader(fs);
    rd.BaseStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
    PCL = rd.ReadToEnd().ToString();
    rd.Close();
    fs.Close();
    string dat="";

    for (int i = 0; i < r.Cells.Count; i++)
    {
        if (r.Cells[i].Value != null)
        {
            dat = r.Cells[i].Value.ToString();
            if (dg.Columns[i].HeaderText == "NOC")
            {
                if (r.Cells[4].Value == "")
                {
                    PCL = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Replace(PCL, "<fe />NOC", Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Format(int.Parse(dat), "0000").ToString(), 1, -1, Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompareMethod.Text);

                    // here I think I have to do some thing which make default value 1
                }

                {
                    PCL = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Replace(PCL, "<fe />NOC", Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Format(int.Parse(dat), "0000").ToString(), 1, -1, Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompareMethod.Text);
                }
            }
            else
            {
                PCL = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Replace(PCL , "<fe />" + dg.Columns[i].HeaderText.ToString() + "", dat, 1, -1, Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompareMethod.Text);
            }
        }
    }
                
    PCL = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Replace(PCL, "<fe />NOC","0001", 1, -1, Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompareMethod.Text);
    if (r.Cells[0].Value != null)
    {
        PCL1 = PCL1 + PCL + CrLf;
        PCL = "";
    }
    else
    {
        PCL = "";
    }

Hi,

I think you should make a function to trapped said error:

Example:

C#

public static string IifStr(object p)
{
   string retVal = string.Empty;
   if (p != DBNull.Value || p != null)
   {
       retVal = Convert.ToString(p);
   }
   return retVal;
}
// Overload IifStr
public static string IifStr(string p)
{
   string retVal = string.Empty;
   if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(p))
   {
       retVal = Convert.ToString(p);
    }
    return retVal;
}

C#

IEnumerable<DataRow> dtRow = exDT.AsEnumerable();
var lstExcelData = dtRow.Select(s => new Claim
{
    Remarks = IifStr(s.Field<string>("REMARKS")),
    ClaimType = IifStr(s.Field<string>("TRANSTYPE"))
}).ToList();

Hope this could help...

Regards,
