Errors on database insert - works only sometimes

I'm working in Visual Studio 2012 and I'm running this code to insert a row into a history database when a field on an asp.net page is changed. It seems to work 1 out of every three times I test it without debug on - and has absolutely no problems when running in debug mode (which made me think that I just needed to add wait functions at points of my code - but that didn't work). For the most part, it just doesn't insert the row, but for one user, it gives the error: "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection." Any help would be much appreciated.

If e.Item.OwnerTableView.Name = "DigitalInsertions" Then
       Dim fullAdNumber As String = e.Item.GetDataKeyValue("AdNumber")
       Dim Adnumber As String = Mid(fullAdNumber, 3, 7)

Thanks!

p.s. I had posted something similar earlier - but thought I had found the solution in the form of the wait function - so I edited it to say nevermind (I couldn't figure out how to edit a second time to remove the 'nevermind' comment) and I was hoping that that is the reason I didn't receive any further response. sorry for posting twice, but I really really need some help with this.
 
You've got a great big wad of code inside a Try block there and if anything goes wrong you simply ignore and carry on. Don't ignore the exception you are catching because it tells you what went wrong and where.

I removed the Try - Catch -Finally - End Try from the code. It runs perfectly everytime while in debug mode. In Live, it runs perfectly one out of every two tries it seems and then fails silently (no error) the other 50% of the time.
 
It will always fail silently if you don't catch the error. You need to catch the SQLException and display the exception's Message property.

Okay, I added back in the Try - Catch- Finally - End Try and tried adding this:

Catch ex As Exception
                Dim str As String
                str = "Source : " & ex.Source
                str &= ControlChars.NewLine
                str &= "Exception Message : " & ex.Message
                Console.WriteLine("General Exception" & str)
            Finally 


It is still failing silently. It is weird because it ran fine 5 times in a row and then nothing.
