Hi,

I'm having an issue, when I'm exporting to excell the Grid, I have the following error message

El código de usuario no controló System.NullReferenceException

HResult=-2147467261

Message=Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I have been searching the web, and have no solution to my problem.

Web config, the version of the dlls Syncfusion.EJ and Syncfusion.EJ.Export are the same

</assemblies>

</compilation>

Also, the columns in the grid are the same in the datasource from the export, because I'm calling the same function in both cases.

So what else should I check.

Thanks in advance.

Could you please share us the following details so that we could sort out the cause of the issue and provide a solution as early as possible?

1. Please share us the Grid code example (both view and controller page).

2. Code example of datasource did you bind to the Grid.

3. Please make ensure that columns you have given are defined in the datasource.

4. If possible replicate the issue in the above sample and send us back.

5. Replication procedure for the issue.

6. Screenshot/ Video regarding the issue.

So, I will re-attach your code example with all the files related with my grid, so you can see the code...

Hi Dayne,

Query #1: I can't execute the code provided, it has a configuration error

As we have provided the sample in v14.4.0.15 and the dlls being referred from system GAC, the reported configuration error occurred.

Please refer to the below knowledge base link for more information on resolving this issue.

https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/4661/how-to-resolve-could-not-load-file-or-assembly-error

Query #2: I will re-attach your code example with all the files related with my grid, so you can see the code..

From your code examples, we found that, you have defined a field “Alta_Nominal” in grid columns whereas, the field name is defined as “AltaNominal” in ConsultarEmpleados_ReportResult class. Since the field name differs, the null exception has been obtained as explained in the below knowledge base link.

https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/3018/null-exception-while-exporting

So, please change the defined name same as that of the database in order to avoid reported Null exception.

Regards,

Ragavee U S.

Hi,

Thanks!! It is true, I didn't realize the underscore. That fix this issue.

But, I have another, I have a multiple export, and when I click excell export button once, all my tables are exported correctly, but if I click the export button again, without doing anything else, it pop up this message error, and I don't know why, It seems that the GridModel variable, with the grid properties is empty some how.. This behavior does not occur when I'm exporting a single grid, it just happend with multiple export.

Invalid JSON primitive: "EmptyRecord":"No records to display","GroupCaptionFormat":"{{:headerText}}: {{:key}} - {{:count}} ","GroupText":" item","True":"true","False":"false"}.

1. Share the code example of a Grid and controller.

I will attach the project with a sample

2. Share the full stackrace of an issue.

Just open the GridFeatures View, fill all the data, and then clic on the magnifying glass icon, and then on the Excel icon to export all data, the export occurs just fine, the clic again on the Excell icon, without doing anithing else..

Thanks in advance
