Hi All,

I am trying to itrate DISCUSSION BOARD items(threads),
and List.ItemCount shows 2 items, but when i try to access
items, it shows listItem null, and debugger comes out of loop

     SPList list=web.Lists["DBoard"];
            int i = list.ItemCount;
            foreach (SPListItem listItem in list.Items)
            {

}

I am not able to find, what i am doing wrong here.

Arun, you can try the below code

SPList list = myweb.Lists["DBoard"];
            SPQuery myquery = new SPQuery();
            myquery.Query = "<Query><OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Subject'/></OrderBy></Query>";
            SPListItemCollection myitemcol = list.GetItems(myquery);
            DropDownList1.Items.Clear();
            DropDownList1.AppendDataBoundItems = true;
            DropDownList1.Items.Add(new ListItem("Select...", ""));
            foreach (SPListItem listitem in myitemcol)
            {
                DropDownList1.Items.Add(new ListItem(listitem["Subject"].ToString()));
            }

Hi RAJ,

Actually i am using SPEmailEventReciever handler, inside that i placed ur code...

But as usual it is coming from loop

foreach (SPListItem listitem in myitemcol)
            {
                DropDownList1.Items.Add(new ListItem(listitem["Subject"].ToString()));
            }

as it is not getting item in the collection.
I dont know what is happening here.
