In Design mode the code below shows:
Error rendering control - dp1
An unhandled exception has occurred.
Object reference not set for an instance of an object.

Likewise for tp1, dp2 and tp2

The code appears to work OK but I would like to remove those notices when I
look at it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

the .vb file contains only:

I would suspect that one of your data values is a null value. A value cannot
be cast to an object like string, int, longm, etc if the value is null.

Your application is failing, and it's going on like nothing happened due to
the application not knowing that it failed.

Right you are. I didn't know I had to do that.

Thanks
