Object reference not set to an instance of an object #2

Question

I have got below error message:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Code-behind:

public partial class Edit : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    private TextBox updated_time;

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        updated_time = (TextBox)ABC_DV.FindControl("txt_updated_time");
        updated_time.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
    }
}

how could i solve this ?

Answer 1

Okay you need to take into consideration the mode the DetailsView is in when attempting to access a control, it will not exist in the hierarchy if it isn't in the edit mode causing the Page_Load to explode when it is called without the DetailsView in edit mode. Add some checks to your code to properly handle the control state.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (ABC_DV.CurrentMode == DetailsViewMode.Edit) {
      updated_time = (TextBox)ABC_DV.FindControl("txt_updated_time");
      if(null != updated_time)
        updated_time.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
    }
}
