Giesbrecht, Jeff
I have a piece of c# code like so:

int numbercols =3D reader.FieldCount; =20
int row =3D 1; =20
while (reader.Read()) {=20
for (int i=3D0;i<numbercols;i++) =20
{
    if (row =3D 1){
        xlsheet.ActiveSheet.Cells[row,i] =3D
reader.GetName(i).ToString();
    }
    else{
        xlsheet.ActiveSheet.Cells[row,i] =3D
reader.GetValue(i).ToString();
    }
}
row++;
}=20

Now VS.NET keeps telling me that the (row =3D 1) portion is wrong =
because
it can't implicitly convert an int to a bool.

I don't know C# just VB and can't figure out how to construct a simple
If then Else statement.
I want the code to check and see if the row =3D 1 then do something, =
else
do something else.

Thanks for the help!!

if(row == 1){...

= is the 'assignment' operator. C# expects a boolean statement within an if
statement, your previous code was 'assigning' row to equal 1 every time. ==
is a boolean 'assigned to equal'.

in c#, the evaluation should be a double equals.

ex: if (row = 1)
becomes
    if (row == 1)

try that and see if it helps.

Vanegas, Gilbert
Jeff, I believe you need to say
if (row == 1) to make it an equality operator?
I know this works like this in C++.

'=' is the C# assignment operator

Ex: int a = 10;

'==' is a boolean compare operator

Ex: if (a == 10){}

Light, Barney
Correct c# operator for an equality test is '=='. So the line should read:

if (row == 1)

The '=' operator is only used for assignment.

hth,
