You can handle this error

 ASP.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
drpcompname.SelectedValue = drd.GetValue(0).ToString();

Replace the above statement with the following code

ListItem item = drpcompname.Items.FindByValue(drd.GetValue(0).ToString());

        item.Selected = true;
ListItem item = drpcompname.Items.FindByValue(drd.GetValue(0).ToString());
if (item != null)
        item.Selected = true;
