Mystery Error

[Todd Plambeck]

I have a website with about 100 users. They all seem to work fine except
one. When they go from the main page to a page containing a webgrid
containing delivery addresses, an error is thrown. Here's the code that
causes the error:

' Store URL Referrer
ViewState("UrlReferrer") = Request.UrlReferrer.ToString()

Here's the error description:Object reference not set to an instance of an
object.

They are using IE 6 and it happens on all the PC's in their office. Any
ideas what would cause this not to work on just this one customer?

Thanks,

Todd

Hi Todd,

>>>> ViewState("UrlReferrer") = Request.UrlReferrer.ToString()

You should check that UrlReferrer is not null before trying to call
ToString() on it.
