I have a problem. using the data adapter I have configured it to accept data
entry from text fields. However, there are a couple of fields in the
database which have a database type of decimal. there aren't any server
controls which specifically handle decimals and I tried converting the
variable to a decimal format. then using the variable in the parameters to
input into the database. I still get a message telling me invalid format.
Help

Hi,

Try this
(decimal) TextBox1.Text;
decimal d = decimal.Parse(TextBox1.Text);

If the error still persists then put the code in try ...catch
statement and check the stack trace.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks
Raghavendra
