Thank you! So simple too. I gave the Q_Weighting fields a default value of 0 and now it works correctly. Hope this helps someone else!

Most likely, the node has an xsi:nil attribute that needs to be removed before you can set a value to it. Search this forum for xsi:nil, and you should find plenty of help.

Thanks for the reply

The only other info I have is:

System.InvalidOperationException

It seems to be to do with trying to pass an integer, so I changed them all to strings just to see if it would stop the error. The same error occurred.

Does the InvalidOperationException provide any other information?

Hi all -

This should be a really simple bit of code, but I can't understand why it's not working.

All I want to do is retrieve a value from one field and set another's fields value depending on the first.

Here is the code:

Public Sub Q_Select_1_Changed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As XmlEventArgs)

Set_Weighting("1")

End Sub

Public Sub Set_Weighting(QNo as String)

' Get question number and question

Dim QuestionString As String = String.Concat("//my:myFields/my:Questions/my:Q_Select/my:Q_Select_", QNo)

Dim WeightingString As String = String.Concat("//my:myFields/my:Questions/my:Q_Weighting/my:Q_Weighting_", QNo)

Dim WeightingValue As Integer

'Get value of Q_Select

Dim nav As XPathNavigator = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator()

Dim fieldValue As String = nav.SelectSingleNode(QuestionString, NamespaceManager).Value

'Select case from string in Q_Select

Select Case fieldValue

Case "Yes"

WeightingValue = 100

Case "No"

WeightingValue = 0

Case "To be reviewed"

WeightingValue = 25

Case "Not required"

WeightingValue = 100

Case "In Progress"

WeightingValue = 50

Case "Awaiting Sign Off"

WeightingValue = 75

Case "Information not available"

WeightingValue = 0

Case "Immediate action required"

WeightingValue = 0

End Select

'Set Q_Weighting value

Dim nav2 As XPathNavigator = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator()

nav2.SelectSingleNode(WeightingString, NamespaceManager).SetValue(WeightingValue)

End Sub

It just throws an InvalidOperationException error. When I hover over WeightingString, the xpath is as it should be. The WeightingValue is also correct. Can anyone see what the problem is? I have tried different permutations of the xpath, but nothing seems to work.

TIA
