Conversion from string "0" to type 'Integer' is not valid.

Conversion from string "0" to type 'Integer' is not valid.

  I had this error not long ago!  Surprisingly, it had to do with the computer's culture setting.
   in english, we use 1.33, french is 1,33   so if the variable isn't formatted correctly, the conversion fails).
  
  
  Try adding this line to the start of your code.  It's sets the culture setting to a default, which will  tell the compiler to process intergers, singles, doubles... etc differently.
  
  

  System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture

  interestingly, when I copied your three lines of code into my app, both of the conversion lines failed.
  
  I tried a third conversion method: ctype(s, integer) which also failed.
  
  as for my code:
  '**********************************************************
  Public Function getpubsWithOptionalParams(ByVal lTblSiteID As Integer) As Data.DataSet
  
  'code removed for brevity
  
  End Function
  '**********************************************************
  
  code snippet from aspx file

  <asp:ObjectDataSource ID="odsSite" runat="server" SelectMethod="getpubsWithOptionalParams" TypeName="dataAccess">

  <SelectParameters>
  <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="hdnSiteCode" DefaultValue="0" Name="lTblSiteID" PropertyName="Value" Type="Int32" />
  </SelectParameters>
  </asp:ObjectDataSource>

  Basically I'm having exactly the same problems with dates. If I force the output format to be US using a format specigier then it can parse my date fine on the "post".

  There seem to be a few people suffering from this too.

  I am going to try and raise a support call with microsoft as it looks like a bug with the framework.

  Could you post the code you're using
  
  There are several possibilities to convert strings to integers:
  

  Dim s As String = "0" Dim i As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(s) Dim j As Integer = Integer.Parse(s)
