DataRow Row = Table.Rows[0];
id = int.Parse(Row[0].ToString());
returnString = typ + (count + id).ToString();
}
return returnString;
} }  // i need to generate Userid for different users

there is no return value when designation does not equal student

You need a return value between the two curley brackets on line 18, like mentioned above.

try to declare the returnString at the top of your code.. after the method.. and specify the datatype..
