this is the RadiobuttonList's section code:

<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" Enabled='<%# Eval("Gender") %>'
Visible="False">
<asp:RadioButtonList ID="GenderRadioButton" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
CausesValidation="True" RepeatDirection="Horizontal"
SelectedIndex='<%# Eval("Gender") %>' SelectedValue='<%# Bind("Gender") %>'>
<asp:ListItem Selected="True">man
<asp:ListItem>woman

From the code I can make out that you may not be getting the value of "Gender" from the Database. Please make sure you get the value. Or else debug and check at each step.

What does it mean "running a solution"? There is no such thing. You can run an application, which is not the same. No, this is not just words, but the essential distinction.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object

This error happens when you try to use a property or call a method of an object that is null. More details: here[^]

A simple use of Visual studio DEBUGGER can tell you the object because of which it is happening. Just look at the stack trace and put a debugger on that line. Check the objects of that line and see if any one is null and you are trying to use that objects property. Handle the same.

For now, do look at this to start with assuming value for 'Gender' is getting through:

HTML

Enabled='<%# Eval("Gender") %>'

Eval will get the string equivalent and not the boolean one. Setting it to a Boolean expecting property might cause issues.

BTW, I could not understand the point of having a enable proerty being set via an Eval here. That too when Panel is made hidden!
