Input string not in correct format

[quinnipiac0807]

I'm trying to pass a variable from one page to another and I"m getting the input string in correct format error. I usually can work arround this error but this time I can't. Here's the code.

protected void grdAssets_ItemDataBound(object sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs e)
{
AssCustID = e.Item.Cells[6].ToString();

if (e.Item.FindControl("btnDelAssign") != null)
((ImageButton) e.Item.FindControl("btnDelAssign")).Attributes.Add("onclick", "showModal('itd/itdDeleteAssignment.aspx?acID=" + AssCustID + "', 'Delete Assignment', '', 'status:no;scroll:no;', 250, 450, false)");
}

The code on the next page to recieve it is next.

private void btnOk_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
DeleteAsset(Convert.ToInt32(AssCustID));
}

I get the error when I try to convert it to an int32. Any suggestions. Thanks again!!!

How are you setting AssCustID's value in the second page? Are you reading the QueryString?

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Thanks - Jennifer

you might receive this in the case where AssCustID in the first page is empty

instead of AssCustID = e.Item.Cells[6].ToString() use

try
{
    AssCustID = int.Parse(e.Item.Cells[6].ToString());
}
catch
{
    AssCustID = -1;
}
