Unable to cast object of type System.DBNull
Hi, In pulling data from SQL, some of the columns in the row are null. I receive an exception message: Exception calling "GetString" with "1" argument(s): "Unable to cast object of type 'System.DBNull' to type 'System.String'." How can I handle this? It seems to basically just move on to the next row, but I need all rows and all columns. If the column is null, ok with me but I do need to set it as an empty string, I guess. This data will be used to set details for users in AD. When I use the set-aduser command, I will need to be able to use the variable even if it is null. I don't want Powershell to not execute the set-aduser command because the particular variable is empty. The one it fails on the most is the supr_username. $result = $SelectDataTable | foreach-object { [pscustomobject]@{ Identity = $_.GetString(2) Title = $_.GetString(3) Department = $_.GetString(4) MSC = $_.GetString(5) Office_Location = $_.GetString(6) Office_Phone = $_.GetString(7) Supr_username = $_.GetString(10) } Any help would be appreciated!Solved13KViews0likes2Comments
