Parsing int from DataRow cell [closed]

Answer 1

If what is put into that cell is actually just an int, use:

(int)item["QuestionId"]

Otherwise, check the runtime type of the value item["QuestionId"], if it is a byte for example, use (byte)item["QuestionId"]. If you're not sure, then:

Convert.ToInt32(item["QuestionId"])

will probably work, but that's less elegant.
