This is a very generic error message. It means you are trying to access a property or invoke a method of an un-instantiated class. How did you arrive at the conclusion that it is a sql error? |

dumb guess-being-very tired one. I am converting data from one accounting system to another. We open an employee, make a change, and save it, The message appears and if we try to save the record we first get the above message, then one that says that record already exists. |

You've debug the application to find out the real cause. |
