I'm simply trying to pass session variables to a confirmation page before calling a stored procedure. This is the error I get on the confirmation page: Compiler Error Message: CS0103: The name 'startdate' does not exist in the class or namespace 'ASP.ConfirmAuction_aspx' Source Error: Line 45:

Line 46:

Line 47: Start Date: <%# startdate %> Line 48:

you might want to try using javascript ParseFloat("variablename")

Error message is quite clear here. Objects dont have member called Convert. Session[] contains objects. Convert.ToSingle(Session["minprice"].Convert.ToSingle()); should be Convert.ToSingle(Session["minprice"]);

Ok I figured out the problem, now I have run into a new one. I can get all of the string values just fine. However, I need to copy the price and increment values, which are floats, into a method calling a stored procedure. I'm getting a data type error when I send parameters to the method. How can I convert the object to a float? I'm trying to convert the objects into float values using the Convert.ToSingle() method. Here is the error: Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately. Compiler Error Message: CS0117: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Convert' Source Error: Line 39: string name = Session["name"].ToString(); Line 40: string description = Session["description"].ToString(); Line 41: float minprice = Convert.ToSingle(Session["minprice"].Convert.ToSingle()); Line 42: float increment = Convert.ToSingle(Session["increment"].Convert.ToSingle()); Line 43: int available = Convert.ToInt32(Session["available"].Convert.ToSingle()); Thanks in advance Dinesh
