I keep receiving "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error when trying to run this code:

What am I doing wrong?On what line do you get the error?
You never open conPubs.
Dim conPubs As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("connectionString"))
rs1 = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tbl_Inbox WHERE imd_sn = '" & TXTsn.Text & "'", conPubs)
conPubs.Open()
ds = New DataSet
rs1.Fill(ds, "imd_nav")
error occurred on this line:
Functions.InsertImdAssign(TXTnav.Text, TXTfreq.Text, TXTsn.Text, TXTfw.Text, TXTdate.Text, xrecvd, xrels, TXTremarks.Text, TXTcmpy.Text, TXTrver.Text, TXTplate.Text, TXTdr.Text, TXTassign.Text)
all,
still having this problem.. error occured at functions..
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
kindly help
Set a breakpoint on this line (click the line, press F9 so a red dot appears beside the line, then press F5 to run the project):
Functions.InsertImdAssign(TXTnav.Text, TXTfreq.Text, TXTsn.Text, TXTfw.Text, TXTdate.Text, _
xrecvd, xrels, TXTremarks.Text, TXTcmpy.Text, TXTrver.Text, TXTplate.Text, TXTdr.Text, TXTassign.Text)
When this line is hit, and turns yellow, hover your mouse over each object - 'Functions', 'TXTfw' etc. One of these should give you an intellisense popup with a value of "nothing". If this is a textbox, make sure yuo've typed the name correctly, if this is another object like the "Functions" one, make sure it is instanciated and ready for use...
Don't you have to use 'Shared' if you want to call a function without instantiating first? I'm not sure, but give it a try.
Copy paste the entire error page for us please, so we can read the stack trace and the few lines of code it is highlighting.
Thanks.
A) It's ASP.Net, break points don't work the same way
B) I'm assuming the function is in the same class as the sub (or atleast an object is created somewhere for it). If it wasn't, they'd receive an error in design time and not be able to build it.
C) Your command is an INSERT, not a SELECT. A sqlDataReader won't be able to do anything with it. You need to use the ExecuteNonQuery member of MyCommand.
I don't see a class 'Functions'. Also, where do you create a new instance of it?
