You have to call dr Read   before attempting to read any data  That method will return false if there is nothing to read

You have to call DataReader Read to fetch the result   SqlDataReader dr   cmd10 ExecuteReader    if  dr Read              read data for first record here     DataReader Read   returns a bool indicating if there are more blocks of data to read  so if you have more than 1 result  you can do   while  dr Read              read data for each record here
