NullReferenceException on instantiated object?

Question

This is a segment of code from an app I\'ve inherited, a user got a Yellow screen of death:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Answer 1

I'm inclined to agree with the others; it sounds like one of the parameters you are passing SE.UI.Utilities.GetPermissionList is null which is causing the exception. Your best bet is to fire up the debugger and check was the variables are before that code is called.
