/i had a similar problem where i was getting a search string and querying a datetime column... see line 4/

1)case "Admission_Date":
2)if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(SearchValue))
3)   {
4)   DateTime dtFrom = 
Convert.ToDateTime(SearchValue); 
wards = from s in db.CORE_DATA_tbl
    where s.Admit_Date == dtFrom
    orderby s.ActionType, s.AdmissionLocation
    select s;
    }
    break;
