C# NullReferenceException Problem

[Ziggs]

Hey!

 

I'm dynamicly creating listboxes in my program and i want to do something with them in another method but it gives me the NullReferenceException exception. What should i do?

 

       public void newTabButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
            TextBox textBoxJan = new TextBox();
            textBoxJan.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(textBoxJan_KeyDown);

            ListBox LBJan = new ListBox();

            tabControl1.TabPages.Add(tabPage);
            tabPage.Controls.Add(LBJan);
            tabPage.Controls.Add(textBoxJan);
    }

    public ListBox LBJan;
    public Label sumLabel;

    public void textBoxJan_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
        {
            if (sender is TextBox)
            {
                TextBox textBoxJan = (TextBox)sender;
                LBJan.Items.Add(textBoxJan.Text)
            }
        }
    }

You have a public variable of type ListBox, LBJan that you never instantiate and you are attempting to access a property of it in a method (textBoxJan_KeyDown) that will be called multiple times. Your code is a mess.
