Changing the allow null in sql is not automatically picked up by VS designers.
You need to manually change the AllowDBNull property of each column in your tables.
You can do this in the dataset designer.

Thanks
But HOW change IT manuaaly PLZ gUIDE

Assuming that you created a DataSet using the Visual Studio designer and dragged a table from your DB on to the design surface the table will have been created using the values from the DB at that time. Any changes to the DB are not automatically updated in the dataset unless you re-create the dataset.

To change the AllowDBNull property of a column:
Open your dataset in the DataSet designer.
Click on the column in the table you wish to modify.
This will display the column properties in properties window.
Scroll the propeties window to find AllowDBNull and change it.

i am not using the datset tool
i am using it through coding

DIM DS as new dataset

So plz guide me to set allowdbnull property through coding

[nick.crane]

AllowDBNull is a property on the data columns.
Show me the code where you create the dataset and I'll try to help.

Dim Con As New SqlConnection
Dim Da As New SqlDataAdapter
Dim Ds As New DataSet
Dim Sql As String

AND FOR SAVE

Dim counter, abc As Integer
counter = DataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1
MsgBox(counter)
For abc = 0 To counter - 1
Sql = "insert into purchaseitem values(" & TextBox3.Text & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(0).Value & _
",'" & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(1).Value & _
"'," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(2).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(3).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(4).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(5).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(6).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(7).Value & _
",'" & ComboBox1.Text & "')"

Show me the code where you add the data to your dataset?

[nick.crane]

Show me the code where you use the variables Conn, Da, and Ds.

Dim counter, abc As Integer
counter = DataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1
MsgBox(counter)
For abc = 0 To counter - 1
Sql = "insert into purchaseitem values(" & TextBox3.Text & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(0).Value & _
",'" & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(1).Value & _
"'," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(2).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(3).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(4).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(5).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(6).Value & _
"," & DataGridView1.Rows(abc).Cells(7).Value & _
",'" & ComboBox1.Text & "')"
MsgBox(Sql)
Da = New SqlDataAdapter(Sql, Class1.Connection)
Da.SelectCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()

Hi, so you're saying change AllowDBNull to True, or change it to False? My datatable has all the DataColumns set to True, however whenever I pull a NULL value from SQL, I get an Exception in the GET Method. WTF? This is pretty lame if you ask me... strongly typed but so strongly that you cannot handle NULLs.
