Description:
Get the following error when looping through a data reader generated recordset.

System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
   at System.Number.StringToNumber(String str, NumberStyles options, NumberBuffer& number, NumberFormatInfo info, Boolean parseDecimal)
   at System.Number.ParseInt32(String s, NumberStyles style, NumberFormatInfo info)
   at MySql.Data.Types.MySqlInt32.MySql.Data.Types.IMySqlValue.ReadValue(MySqlStream stream, Int64 length, Boolean nullVal)
   at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.ReadColumnValue(Int32 index, MySqlField field, IMySqlValue valObject)
   at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDataReader.Read()

How to repeat:
Using ASP.net(VB)
When looping through a recordset using a Datareader thats calling a stored proceedure with params, It gets half way through the recordset and crashes with the below error:

System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
   at System.Number.StringToNumber(String str, NumberStyles options, NumberBuffer& number, NumberFormatInfo info, Boolean parseDecimal)
   at System.Number.ParseInt32(String s, NumberStyles style, NumberFormatInfo info)
   at MySql.Data.Types.MySqlInt32.MySql.Data.Types.IMySqlValue.ReadValue(MySqlStream stream, Int64 length, Boolean nullVal)
   at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.ReadColumnValue(Int32 index, MySqlField field, IMySqlValue valObject)
   at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlDataReader.Read()

Heres the SP:

	FROM tbl_property
	WHERE Supplier_No = parSupplier
	AND Portals='Y'
	ORDER BY Property_Id;

The SP runs fine in  a query window and the data all looks good but for some reason it crashes on some records.

Hi Jon and thanks for your report...

Now, where am I supposed to start? Can you please do the following:
  o Try the same in cl client and see if it fails for same rows. If so, open a bug report against server.
  o Attach DDL/DML script I can load into my database and accompanying test case. Be sure to mark where the test case actually fails. If you're concerned about sensitive data, attach everything privately.
