Object reference not set to an instance - oCurrentNumber = oDoc.ActiveSheet

I'm pretty sure this was working Friday afternoon - test again Monday morning & an error's appeared!

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The problem is this line:

oCurrentNumber = oDoc.ActiveSheet

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

ThisDrawing.ResourceFileName = "C:\Vault Views\PDM01\Templates\test1.idw"
ThisDrawing.KeepExtraResources = True

MessageBox.Show("Line 4", "Title")

Dim oDoc As DrawingDocument

MessageBox.Show("Line 8", "Title")

Dim oCurrentNumber  As Sheet

MessageBox.Show("Line 12", "Title")

oCurrentNumber = oDoc.ActiveSheet

MessageBox.Show("Line 16", "Title")

oCurrentNumber.Activate

Regards

Andrew
