Have you set the SelectedDate property of the DateTime control? That might be why you are getting the null reference exception. 

E.g.

var t = DateTime.Now;
yourDateTimeControl.SelectedDate = t;
//Or, if you want to manipulate the date
yourDateTimeControl.SelectedDate = new DateTime(t.Year, t.Month, t.Day, t.Hour, t.Minute, 0).AddDays(1);

Thanks for the answer,

Thanking you in Advance

hi

where are your code? in page load? control event? inside a loop?
plz explain more about your code

my code is in page load()

{

//this is the code for selected startdate and enddate i am taking,

timespan ts=new timespan(14,0,0,0);

dtcstartdate.selecteddate=datetime.today.subtract(ts);

dtcenddate.selectedate=datetime.now.adddays(-2);

loadcompanylist();

}

buttonevent_click(0

{

loadcompanylist();

}

loadcompanylist()

{

startdate=dtcstartdate.selecteddate;

enddate=dtcendate.selecteddate;

}

i have one linkbutton in data list,when i am clicking that link the page it self is not loading,

it is generating correlation id and dats it.

after pageload and befor buttonevent(buttonevent_click), asp.net copies viewstate values to controls, so dtcstartdate and dtcendate values will be equal to values entered in form, not values assigned in pageload. it may be that values of that controls is null, when page postbacking.

Thanks for the reply

How can i set correct values can you please explain me briefly please.

how to set viewstate values here please

thank you

use code as bellow:

loadcompanylist()
        {
            timespan ts = new timespan(14, 0, 0, 0);
            startdate = dtcstartdate.selecteddate ?? datetime.today.subtract(ts);
            enddate = dtcendate.selecteddate ?? datetime.now.adddays(-2);
        }

so if your controls contains values, it use them, else it use default values

it is saying that ?? symbol is not allowed for datetime controls here
