Question

I am getting this error ‘overload resolution failed because no accessible ‘DataBind’ is most specific for these arguments’ below is the code I am using.

    Private Overloads Sub DataBind(ByVal iPageIndex As Integer) 
     //do some thing 
    End Sub

    Protected Overridable Sub DataBind(raiseondatabinding as Boolean)
        //Do some thibg
    End Sub

    Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.ImageClickEventArgs) Handles btnSearch.Click
            DataBind(Nothing) //this is where I am getting error
    End Sub

Any help would be appropriated.

Thanks,

Pradeep

It doesn’t know which version of DataBind you’re trying to use, because Nothing is convertible to both Boolean and Integer. You could either use a variable for this:

Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _
                            ByVal e As ImageClickEventArgs) _
                            Handles btnSearch.Click
    Dim x As Integer = Nothing
    DataBind(x)
End Sub

or just specify 0 or False as the argument:

Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _
                            ByVal e As ImageClickEventArgs) _
                            Handles btnSearch.Click
    DataBind(False)
End Sub

Adjust depending on which version you actually wanted to call. Like the compiler, I can’t tell what you intended 🙂
