object reference not set to an instance of an object

This exception occur when your are try to access a property,field of a object which
is not intialized to some valid value. Means it is null

or a dynamic object which does not exists

For example:

object a=null;

a.ToString();

This will throw exception "object reference not set to an instance of an object"
