    using System;

    using System.Collections.Generic;

    using System.ComponentModel;

    using System.Text;

    using System.Web;

    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

    using System.Web.UI.Design;

    using System.Data;

    using System.Data.SqlClient;

    using System.Configuration;

    public partial class PDFViewer : System.Web.UI.Page

    {

    protected void Save_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

    SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ConnectionString"]);

    SqlCommand myCmd = new SqlCommand("dbo.GetPDFDocument", myConn);

    myCmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

    SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(myCmd);

    DataSet ds = new DataSet();

    adapter.Fill(ds,"tbl_DoctorsOrders");

    this.DetailsView1.DataSource = ds;

    this.DetailsView1.DataMember = "tbl_DoctorsOrder";

    You need to open the connection.

    SqlConnection myConn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ConnectionString"]);

    SqlCommand myCmd = new SqlCommand("dbo.GetPDFDocument", myConn);

    myCmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

    myCmd.Connection.Open(); 

    .

    .

    myCmd.Connection.Close();

    (google for the "using" statement - auto close's the connection for you).
