linq query giving message "Value cannot be null"

I have searched for help and made option changes from page

And now the error is at line

  public static EnumerableRowCollection<DataRow> AsEnumerable(this DataTable source)
        {
            DataSetUtil.CheckArgumentNull(source, "source");
           return new EnumerableRowCollection<DataRow>(source);
        }

datatableextensions.cs

Going back to the original post before the changes you made that change the location of the error. Try running the application and place a breakpoint on the statement after the query and post the actual exception and inner exception that is thrown. That type of message is normally sent when a collection / object is being processed and it is expecting a value but there is none.

Hi, Below is the detailed massage i get

Thank you

What line in the code is it throwing the exception?

Dim query = From obj_perhour In tbl_perhour.AsEnumerable() Join obj_time In tbl_time.AsEnumerable() _
                    On obj_perhour.Field(Of Int64)("time_key") Equals obj_time.Field(Of Int64)("time_key") _

Dear Fernando,

Seems i am figuring out the cause of the problem.  utype was not properly spelt during table loading  and is likely to be the cause of the problem. it is now running and i waiting to see progress.

Hi MatovuAnthony;

That seems to be strange seeming all values would not of match and then returned a 0, zero, but should not have caused it to throw that type of exception.

I was thinking that one of the Int64 values was a null value and the reason I stated this in my first post, "That type of message is normally sent when a collection / object is being processed and it is expecting a value but there is none."

Fortunately it run after i checked all spelling for my columns

Thank you for the help so far

Anthony

Hi MatovuAnthony, did you understand my last post?
