DataBinding: 'System.String' does not contain a proerpy with the name...

[justin]

Need help here. This grid has 2 records being displayed. If I edit the first record everything works fine. If I edit the second record I get this debug message:

This only happens if I have ListDataMember="ReportName"

HttpException was unhandled by user code
DataBinding: 'System.String' does not contain a property with the name 'ReportName'

here is the item databound sub, Getting the error on ReportNameddList.Databind()

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemDataBound

    If (TypeOf e.Item Is GridEditableItem AndAlso CType(e.Item, GridEditableItem).IsInEditMode) Then

        Dim GridRow As GridEditableItem = e.Item

        Dim editedItem As GridEditableItem = CType(e.Item, GridEditableItem)

        Dim editMan As GridEditManager = editedItem.EditManager

 

 

        ' this covers the report format field priming

        Dim editor As GridDropDownListColumnEditor = CType(editMan.GetColumnEditor("ddReportFormat"), GridDropDownListColumnEditor)

 

        Dim ReportFormatddList As DropDownList = editor.DropDownListControl

        ReportFormatddList.Items.Insert(0, New ListItem("Excel", "Excel"))

        ReportFormatddList.Items.Insert(1, New ListItem("PDF", "PDF"))

        ReportFormatddList.Items.Insert(2, New ListItem("HTML4.0", "HTML4.0"))

        ReportFormatddList.DataBind()

 

        'select the correct record

        Dim ReportFormatString As String = GridRow.GetDataKeyValue("ReportFormat").ToString()

        ReportFormatddList.Items.FindByValue(ReportFormatString).Selected = True

 

 

 

        'this covers the report name field priming

        editor = CType(editMan.GetColumnEditor("ddReportName"), GridDropDownListColumnEditor)

        Dim ReportNameddList As DropDownList = editor.DropDownListControl

        ReportNameddList.DataSource = (From r In DbContext.SubscriptionReportNames Select r.ReportName).ToList()

        ReportNameddList.DataBind()  '<-- this is the error line, but only when second row is being edited.



 

        'select the correct record

        Dim ReportNameString As String = GridRow.GetDataKeyValue("ReportName").ToString()

        ReportNameddList.Items.FindByValue(ReportNameString).Selected = True

 

 

 

    End If

End Sub
