IndexOutOfRangeException

Question

I have a simple web application in vb.net (on .net 2.0) that takes data from an excel sheet and stores it into a sql server database using typed datasets.

My problem is in the follwing code. This is an event handler for the "Import into SQL" button, after the excel file has been uploaded.

 

Protected Sub ButtonImport_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _

Handles ButtonImport.Click

PanelUpload.Visible = False

PanelView.Visible = False

PanelImport.Visible = True

' retrieve the Select Command for the worksheet data

Dim objCommand As New OleDbCommand()

objCommand = ExcelConnection()

' create a DataReader

Dim reader As OleDbDataReader

reader = objCommand.ExecuteReader()

 

Dim counter As Integer = 0

While reader.Read()

Dim ORIGINATOR_ID As String = Convert.ToString(reader("LBF_PREFIX"))

'Dim SMPL_DTE As Integer = Convert.ToInt64reader("LBF_DATE")

'Dim LAB_NUM As Double = Convert.ToDouble(reader("LBF_LAB_NUM"))

Dim LAB_NUM As Double = "1"

'''I get a IndexOutOfRangeException right here, or where I try to read any row into its respective variable to be passed on to an import function. In the line above, if I would try to read the column value into LAB_NUM for instance,

Dim LAB_NUM as double = Convert.ToDouble(reader("LBF_LAB_NUM")) as I did in the commented code above it, I get the same error.  What am I doing wrong here??? I have read over the suggestions and tips and they keep hinting at how this happens when the index is larger than the max index in the list, or if its a negative index, or when the column names are not defined right, but I'm still stumped:( Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

 

'REST OF THE METHOD

 

--->>>>Dim TURN As String = Convert.ToString(reader("LBF_TURN"))

Dim SMPL_ANALYS_DTE As Integer = Convert.ToInt64(reader("ANALYS_HOUR"))

Dim SMPL_ANALYS_MIN As Integer = Convert.ToInt64(reader("ANALYS_MIN"))

'ADD THE NEXT COLUMN "ANALYS_MIN" AS "ANALYS_MIN TO SQL TABLE'

'Or append hour and min before inputting it into SMPL_ANALYS_DTE
