I have a Gridview that allows user to edit and delete the records. I am using .net 3.5 using C#.
When I have just one record my edit command is working fine but problem comes when there are more that 1 record in my gridview.
In this case while binding the controls it it is unable to find the controls the second time and thus throws the error.
Here is my code:
protected void gdScheduleNew_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
if (ViewState["Updating"].Equals(true))
{
TextBox txtactsta = (TextBox)e.Row.FindControl("txtactualstartDate");
TextBox txtactend = (TextBox)e.Row.FindControl("txtactualendDate");
LinkButton lnkUpdate = (LinkButton)e.Row.FindControl("lnkUpdate");
txtactsta.Attributes.Add("ReadOnly", "true");
txtactend.Attributes.Add("ReadOnly", "true");
}
}
}
markup code is:
<asp:GridView ID="gdScheduleNew" runat="server" Width="100%" SelectedIndex="0"
CellPadding="4" AutoGenerateColumns="False" ForeColor="#333333" Height="100px"

The error is on this line: txtactsta.Attributes.Add("ReadOnly", "true");:
object reference no set to an instance of object
How can I fix this?
