Hi everyone,

string connectionstring = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["RoyalHotelManagement"].ConnectionString;
            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionstring);
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("InsertSuite", con);
            cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
            string filleddate = GridView2.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[2].Text;
            string freedate = GridView2.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[3].Text;
            IFormatProvider theCultureInfo = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US", true);
            DateTime filleddate1 = DateTime.ParseExact(filleddate, "mm/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss", theCultureInfo);
          DateTime freedate1 = DateTime.ParseExact(freedate, "mm/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss", theCultureInfo);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@filleddate", filleddate1);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@freedate", freedate1);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@nameofcustomer", GridView2.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[6].Text);
            try
            {
                con.Open();
               
                SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();


            }
            finally
