System.NullReferenceException was unhandled
This particular error has been a real thorn in my side in different sreas of this program, but we'll just deal with this instance of it. The code line that tripped the error is "newstr = NumToWord(Int(numstr / 10 ^ 2))"
And the error is -- System.NullReferenceExcept
Message="Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
.
I did try inserting the key word NEW between As and String in the Declaration statement. But, got another error with that.
Private Sub NTW_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NTW.Click
Dim numstr As String
Dim newstr As String
Dim NumToWord As String
Dim tempstr As String = ""
numstr = TextBox9.Text
If numstr = "0.00" Then
newstr = "Zero"
TextBox10.Text = NumToWord
If numstr >= 10 ^ 2 Then
newstr = NumToWord(Int(numstr / 10 ^ 2))
numstr = ((numstr / 10 ^ 2) - Int(numstr / 10 ^ 2)) * 10 ^ 2
ElseIf numstr = 0 Then
tempstr = tempstr & newstr & "hundred "
Else
tempstr = tempstr & newstr & "hundred "
End If
And the error is -- System.NullReferenceExcept
Message="Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Neilsr,
Yes, That's exactly what the code is trying to do. You're doing well in the PM. I think Itellesence does not miss anything. It's a blessing and a pain all wrapped up in one.

I assume that you have a function named "NumToWord" since you are passing a parameter to it.
The problem is you also have a local variable named NumToWord. Rename the local variable to something else to fix this.

This was written as a function, but I am testing it inside of a click event named NTW.
What is the use of the variable "NumToWord". Note that you never set the value for it which is causing the error.

I got this code from another expert on Experts Exchange, so I'm just feeling my way around the code. I picked up on the same thing you have. It's like NumToWord is a fifth wheel.
Isn't the keyword New suppose to fix problems like this? The variable is being used before a value is set. I know I am going to have to trim up this code, but I am just curiouse about this error.

I think this code has problems and I will work them out. I have the same error message on the variable "newstr", and newstr is an output variable. This is pretty complex code. I am going to work on it and bring it back another time. Thank you for your help.
How is "newstr" an "output" variable? You are working in a Sub--there is no return value, and the parameters are dictated by the delegate signature.
If you give the overall goal, I'm sure one or more of us can help you reach it = )

Kaufmed,
I have absolutly no doubt that you are capable of assisting me on this. You helped me a few times before. This procedure was offered to me by an expert on this site. I think it has potential, but it has a lot of issues. Some of whitch you pointed out. I have decided to work on it and post my problems one at a time. I posted a new one just a couple of minutes ago. Thanks again.

You are taking the INT of a STRING devided by 10 ^2
numstr /10^2
Maybe? Its late and im tired :P
