The problem was the 1st point you mentioned - outCurrentCustomersEffected did not contain a value.

Thanks.

does TheDataRow

is that value a numeric value

if you are using .NET 2.0, try the int.TryParse and see what happens also....example

int result = -1;

if (int.TryParse(TheDataRow

{

//converted result to integer, result stored in the variable "result"

}

else

{

//value was not a numeric/int value

}
