SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query,con);

SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();

//GridView1.DataSource = reader;    WE HAVE TO REMOVE THIS LINE THEN ERROR SOLVE

GridView1.DataBind();


Solution: Choose One Approach

Option 1: Keep DataSourceID (Recommended)

Since you are already using <asp:SqlDataSource>, you do not need to manually bind the GridView in the code-behind.
Check your Insert.aspx.cs file and REMOVE any line that sets GridView1.DataSource and GridView1.DataBind().

If you are handling data insertion in Button1_Click, make sure you only insert data and let the SqlDataSource handle the refresh.

Your error occurs because GridView1 has both a DataSourceID (which is set to SqlDataSource1) and a DataSource property being set programmatically in the code-behind (Insert.aspx.cs).

Since DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" is already declared in the .aspx file, you should not set GridView1.DataSource = someDataTable in the code-behind.

No need to call GridView1.DataBind() because SqlDataSource1 handles it automatically.

  • If using a SqlDataSource, set only DataSourceID and remove DataSource from code-behind.

  • If binding manually, set only DataSource in the code-behind and remove DataSourceID from the .aspx file.

  • Using DataSourceID (Declarative Binding)

    • If you're using a data source control like SqlDataSource, ObjectDataSource, etc., remove the DataSource property in the code-behind and keep only the DataSourceID in the .aspx file.
