Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Means exactly what it says, you are trying to use a null object as a referenced object. You are trying to access an object without instantiating it. You might need to use the "new" keyword to instantiate it first, to create an instance of the object.
Example:
public class MyCar
{
public int Year {get; set;}
}
MyCar Car;
Car.Year = 0; // This will cause the error Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
//Proper way//
MyCar car = new MyCar();
car.Year = 0;
