NullPointerException

[BladeOfDeath]

I get this error every time I something with the paint command in "Ready To Program" which is the program I must use for my computer science course. A little help would be appreciated, if I could fix this problem I could get extra marks on my ISU.

Use the API reference: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/NullPointerException.html

okay I looked at the site but I don't know how to fix it, mind telling me how?

My guess is that somewhere you've declared an object-type variable, but haven't used "new" to create it. Like:

code:

StringBuffer sb; sb.append("Hello");

instead of:

code:

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(); sb.append("Hello");

Well... I think it has something to do with the Image variables or something, because I've never had this error unless using graphics. I'll attach a copy of the code if you wanna check it out for yourself (the images are not enclosed).

Can I see a full copy of the error?

it only shows at home, but when i get home ill send it. Thanks for the help though
