How do I retrive a single record and bind it to a text box. Whenever I am
trying to use SqlDataReader, it gives me an error that "Invalid attempt to
read when no data is present" The code that I am using is
Dim dr As SqlDataReader = med.GetFewMedium(theID)
Dim snCount = 0 'Do db call
Do While dr.Read()
snCount = snCount + 1
Loop
If snCount <> 0 Then
dr.Read()
rate_fig.Text = Trim(CType(dr("medium_id"), String))
dr.Close()
End If

But I I am using the same command for a drop down list, it works fine. The
code for the drop down is

meds_id.DataSource = med.GetFewMedium(theID)
meds_id.DataBind()
meds_id.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("Select a Medium"))

Where am I going wrong
The "GetFewMedium" is the stored procedure I am calling

Hello,

I'm not 100% sure, but this:

Do While dr.Read()
    snCount = snCount + 1
Loop

Will cause the record cursor to go to the end of the recordset. It is
obsolete to try dr.Read() afterwards, because you will be at 'dr.EOF', so
the result will be empty...
