Hello People of earth.

I am trying to create a quotation calculator for ordering burgers. All works well until....the combo box.

I am trying to use a combo box to allow people to order more than 1 burger at once, and then display the price in a box as they change the options.

However, I am getting this error.

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

    at BuldaBurgerCalculator_fla::MainTimeline/frame4()[BuldaBurgerCalculator_fla.MainTimeline::frame4:37]

    at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()

    at BuldaBurgerCalculator_fla::MainTimeline/fnNxt1()[BuldaBurgerCalculator_fla.MainTimeline::frame3:16]

Send me your email so I can send the animation if you want (Please dont copy).
Would love if you guys/gals could help me because it is for school, and, really want to get an A .

Thankyou in advance

According to the error, your problem lies with whatever object your code is trying to target on line 37 of frame 4 of the main timeline

The 1009 error indicates that one of the objects being targeted by your code is out of scope.  This could mean that the object....

 

- is declared but not instantiated

- doesn't have an instance name (or the instance name is mispelled)

- does not exist in the frame where that code is trying to talk to it

- is animated into place but is not assigned instance names in every keyframe for it

- is one of two or more consecutive keyframes of the same objects with no name assigned in the preceding frame(s).
