Error when opening a second open dialog

[RobAMacAF]

I have a program I am trying to write and I have it working the first time. The user clicks the OPEN button to open a txt file which the program loads into it's arrays. Everything works great until they try to open another one. When they do they get a nullreferenceer ror

private void GetQuestionList (string InputList)
{
StreamReader fs = File.OpenText(I nputList);
string input = null;

while ((input = fs.ReadLine()) != null)
lineCount = lineCount+1;
fs.Close();
QuestionLabel.T ext = Convert.ToStrin g(lineCount);

QuestionList = new string[lineCount, 5];

StreamReader fs1 = File.OpenText(I nputList);
int x = 0;
int yy = 0;
string[] split = null;
string input1 = null;
QuestionLabel.T ext = "";
while (x < lineCount)
{

input1 = fs1.ReadLine();
split = input1.Split(ne w Char[] { '|' });

while (yy!=split.Leng th)
{
QuestionList[x, yy] = split[yy];
yy = yy + 1;
}

x = x + 1;
yy = 0;
}
fs1.Close();
ShowQuestion();
thisQuestion = 0;
}



The error happens where i have it underlined, bolded. It only ever happens the second time they use the open dialog a second time. Any ideas or help would be great

you better try this condition instead of using "linecount" variable, this will reduce your code's complexity and may get your problem rid.

do
{

}
while (!stream.EndOfS tream);

if the problem is still, post back,
Cheers.

The reason I made it use line count is so it can make the string array the same size of the input file. I couldn't find a way besides looping though it once to figure out how many lines were in the text file.
