Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Data.DataSet' to 'Sys

I rewrite the code like this,

 

values get binded in 'listcompany',but it doesn't pass to c.cid

 

can anybody help?

 

[HttpGet]

public ActionResult selectcompany()

company_add_jobs c = new company_add_jobs();

DataSet dt = db.getcompany();

List listcompany = new List();

foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Tables[0].Rows)

{

int i = Convert.ToInt32(dr["cid"]);

System.Web.WebPages.Html.SelectListItem sl = new System.Web.WebPages.Html.SelectListItem

{

Value = i.ToString(),

Text = (string)dr["cname"]

};

listcompany.Add(sl); //values get binded in listcompany

}

c.cid = c.listcompany.First().cid; //but when i try to pass values here,it shows error like 'Value cannot be null.'

c.Company_Name =

c.listcompany.First().Company_Name;

return View(c);

}

Hi,

 

Its showing error because you are using :

 

DataSet dt = db.getcompany();

c.listcompany = dt; 

 

In the above you are trying to assign the dataset in a list so its showing error.

 

The solution is first try to convert dataset  dt in to list and then assign in list company.

 

Hope Its helps to you. Please accept the ans if its helps to you.

Thanks.
