Hi There,

I seem to be having some trouble with the dataprovider model: I have this line throwing an error

            objProvider = CType(Framework.Reflection.CreateObject("data", "ThirdI.Modules.ModuleName", "ThirdI.ModuleName"), DataProvider)

I currently have the SQLDataProvider class compiled in the same assembly as the rest of the module. Do I need a seperate assembly for the SQLDataProvider? Web Config seems ok.

Error as follows:

System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: type at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, Boolean nonPublic) at DotNetNuke.Framework.Reflection.CreateObject(String ObjectProviderType, String ObjectProviderName, String ObjectNamespace, String ObjectAssemblyName, Boolean UseCache) at DotNetNuke.Framework.Reflection.CreateObject(String ObjectProviderType, String ObjectNamespace, String ObjectAssemblyName)

Try it like this:

objProvider = CType(Framework.Reflection.CreateObject("data", "ThirdI.Modules.ModuleName", ""), DataProvider)

Do you know the truth when you hear it?
