Problem

When adding a new Phase, after filling in the values and then clicking OK you receive the following error:

Note:
Debug Location: 6

Message:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

If you check the Show Details option on the error message you will also see the following information.

Target:
Void Button_OK_Click(System.Object, System.EventArgs)

Exception:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at CrowsNest.Form_ProjectPhase_AddNew.Button_OK_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Workaround

This is caused when a value is entered into one of the UDC fields then the value is removed by deleting the cell value with the delete or backspace key. To avoid the error, clear cells by using Ctrl+X to cut the value from the cell.

Solution

This has been fixed and should not occur in any version dated after 2020-02-03.
