IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandeled
There is no row at position 0I have two question

2) If it has no row then why it does not exit sub.

Please Help

str = "select sno,name from employees "
        str &= "where Name Like '" & (TextBox5.Text) & "%'"

        cmd2 = New SqlClient.SqlCommand(str, con)
        da2 = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(cmd2)
        dt3 = New DataTable
        da2.Fill(dt3)

        Dim REC As Integer

        If dt3.Rows.Count = 0 Then
            Exit Sub
        Else
            For REC = 0 To dt3.Rows.Count - 1
                REC = DataGridView1.Rows.Add()
                DataGridView1.Rows(REC).Cells(0).Value = (IIf(IsDBNull(dt3.Rows(REC).Item("sno")), 0, dt3.Rows(REC).Item("sno")))
                DataGridView1.Rows(REC).Cells(1).Value = (IIf(IsDBNull(dt3.Rows(REC).Item("Name")), "", dt3.Rows(REC).Item("Name")))
            Next
        End If

Hi,

I tried with your sample code and i am getting an error saying that

No row can be added to a DataGridView control that does not have columns. Columns must be added first.

The above error raises in the following line of code.

REC = DataGridView1.Rows.Add()

which means that the query works fine and it results 2 rows as output to datatable.

On a other hand, if displaying data in a grid is your target means,
why not give a try with following line of code;

DataGridView1.DataSource = dt3

Good luck.

Dear Sir,

I do not want to use DATASOURCE

Ok. Thank you for the update.

I have added following lines to the below code;

'adding headers
For REC = 0 To dt3.Columns.Count - 1
                    DataGridView1.Columns.Add(dt3.Columns(REC).ColumnName, dt3.Columns(REC).ColumnName)
                Next

Now the code is working fine and datagrid is displaying the 2 records.

Still you are getting the same problem means, you can add null checking to the data table, saying that like if datatable is null then exit.

I have attached the screenshot also.

Please update if you are done with the above or not.

Thank you.

Sir,

I do not want to add columns programatically.
I want to put data in existing defined columns.

I wonder, there are two record in table but why grid does not accept them.
