NullReferenceException was unhandled

[Chiefy]

Hey all,
Having an error in C# and am looking for some help. Am getting a "NullReferenceException was unhandled" error in this piece of code

[i]private Student[] students = new Student[noOfStudents];
string[] RandomStudentList = new string [noOfStudents];

public void PreferedProjects()
{
for(int i = 0; i<noOfStudents;i++)
{
RandomStudentList[i] = students.GetName();
.....
.....
}

The underlined line is where i am getting the error and as far as i can see i have created an instance of Student so I dont know why im getting this error.

this just boxes it:

private Student[] students = new Student[noOfStudents];
 

Everyone of the Students in students will be null, you will need to do something like this:

for(int i=0;i<students.Length;i++)
{
students[i]=new Student();
}

Thankyou very much, much appreciated!
