        decimal decDv = decimal.Parse(ViewState["subjectId"].ToString());
        viewDetailsNew(decDv);
    }

回答1:

You are trying to bind to a single object when you need a collection or IEnumerable

Try this

 public IEnumerable<SubjectInfo> SubjectViewDetails(decimal decsubjectid)
{
    var list = new List<SubjectInfo>();

    try
    {
        if (sqlcon.State == ConnectionState.Closed)
        {
            sqlcon.Open();
        }
        SqlCommand sqlcmd = new SqlCommand("SubjectView", sqlcon);
        sqlcmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
        sqlcmd.Parameters.Add("@subjectId", SqlDbType.Decimal).Value = decsubjectid;
        using (var sqlreader = sqlcmd.ExecuteReader())
        {
            while (sqlreader.Read())
            {
                SubjectInfo infosubject = new SubjectInfo();
                infosubject.subjectId = decimal.Parse(sqlreader["subjectId"].ToString());
                infosubject.subjectName = sqlreader["subjectName"].ToString();
                infosubject.shortName = sqlreader["shortName"].ToString();
                list.Add(infosubject);
            }
        }
    }
    catch
    {
        throw;
    }
    finally
    {
        sqlcon.Close();
    }

    return list;
}
