        Return dtTrans

    End Function

 
Addendum: I noticed it happens when I come from another page to this page.
I the other page used a GridView2 as well and changed it to Gridview8 but this did not work either.
I changed the page in error to Gridview8 but get a Object not reference when coming back and forth.
If I added this it says Commonname is not in the table?

GridView2.DataSourceID = ""

There seems to be something else wrong and it's tripping on this error when in fact it is something else.

 
Also it is only in the dev environment, whats on the server now runs fine.
I went back and forth many times while it was running on the server and it does not error, just Errors on my Win 7 dev box?
So I am concerned if I upload it, it will break the site :(

 
Ok I fixed it

I added this VB code
Code:
 [highlight #FCE94F]If GridView2.DataSourceID <> "" Then
            GridView2.DataSourceID = ""
 End If[/highlight]
 GridView2.DataSource = PopulateGridwithSQL(SQLString)
 GridView2.DataBind()

then I had to change the SQL to fill the Grid so it did not have aliases
Code:
 SQLString = "SELECT UniqueID, [highlight #FCE94F]CommonName[/highlight] , EmployeeEpriseID , Location, VPName, Nominator, " & _
                            "ReportToManager, Report1, Report2, Report3, AwardType,  convert (nvarchar(12),DateAwarded,101) as DateAwarded, [Event], Awarded, " & _
                            "Left(NominationSummary,100) + '... (Click Edit button <--- to see all)' as NominationSummary, ePrizeID FROM Recognition " & _
                            "Where ePrizeID = '" & Session("ePrizeID") & "' " & _
                            "Order by UniqueID DESC"

then in the MTML markup I changed all of these fields that had an alias to be thus
Code:
<asp:BoundField DataField="[highlight #FCE94F]CommonName[/highlight]" HeaderText="Employeename" 
                    SortExpression="Employeename" />
I also changed the name of the GridView to GridView8 on the other page

 
It may work but it is a hack. Find out where and why the Gridview's datasourceID property is being set.
you have this code
Code:
If GridView2.DataSourceID <> "" Then
            GridView2.DataSourceID = ""
 End If

Debug that code and find out what the datasourceID is when it is not = "". Then you can track down where it is being set.
