One of your defined objects is null and you're trying to use it.

For instance:

System.Data.Sql.SqClient.SqlConnection cn;
cn.Open(); <-- this will cause that error because cn has not been instantiated yet.

This will work:
System.Data.Sql.SqClient.SqlConnection cn = new System.Data.Sql.SqClient.SqlConnection("my connection string here");
cn.Open();


Do you have the code where this is happening?

This is my code:
if (rdoRSO.Checked==true)
dv = Physicians.GetPhysiciansDropdown(AgencyId, BranchId, lookupchar);
else
dv = Physicians.GetPTOassignedPhysiciansDropdown(AgencyId, BranchId, lookupchar, patientId, patientIntakeId);

When i will put this one if (rdoRSO.Checked==true) in my code i will have that error. What should i do?

I want to place my if statement inside a function that was called during the loading of the page.Is it okey to place it inside a function instead of inside the radiobutton event?
