Answer 1

Normally when querying a database with SQL and then fill a data-table with its results, it will never be a null Data table. You have the column headers filled with column information even if you returned 0 records.When one tried to process a data table with 0 records but with column information it will throw exception.To check the datatable before processing one could check like this.

if (DetailTable != null && DetailTable.Rows.Count>0)
