| I have a T-SQL script that runs in the backend and in the front end i get the following error "Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'String' is not valid " . What is the best way to troubleshoot this script ? would running a trace help or is there a better method ? how do i find out which variables are getting passed to this script. Thanks in advance |

| i think you're expecting a string value for some field and its returned as NULL from db which is causing this conversion error. One way to solve it is to use ISNULL or COALESCE to convert NULL to valid string values. Another way is to do this conversion at your front end. Analyse the line giving you error in front end and you will get the field which is causing this.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/ |
