Hi,

When you are trying to cast textbox control instead of its value, the specified error will occur.

So change the code as needed.

good luck.

Dim no_single_room As Int32 = CType(DirectCast(dataItem.FindControl("txt_single"), TextBox).text , Int32)                       no_double_room As Int32 = CType(DirectCast(dataItem.FindControl("txt_double"), TextBox).text, Int32)

Try this code....this should work
