Question

regarding "object reference not set to an instance of an object" while making vb.net project

Answer 1

Hi @harshit singh ,

Suppose you have a TextBox, and you're trying to access its Text property:

Dim userInput As String = myTextBox.Text

If myTextBox has not been instantiated, you'll get the error. Fix it by ensuring myTextBox is assigned:

If myTextBox IsNot Nothing Then
    Dim userInput As String = myTextBox.Text
Else
    ' Handle the case where myTextBox is Nothing
End If

Best Regards.
