I am trying to convert a string into a uniqueidentifier by using the following code:

string contrID = Request.Params["oId"]
SqlGuid sqlID = SqlGuid.Parse(contrID)

I am then putting sqlID into my SQL WHERE clause so it only pulls that record. I've double checked that the record I'm trying to pull is in the database. I am getting the error below. I don't understand what is causing it, Any Help is appreciated!!!!!!!
