constraint problem

I had declare the keyconstraint.
Dim con_id_rv As ForeignKeyConstraint
con_id_rv = New ForeignKeyConstraint("fk_id",
dtInv.Columns("invno"), dtRv.Columns("invno"))

However, I got one error
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Please help.
Thanks a lot

Why don't you put a breakpoint where you are creating the constraint, and
make sure all these objects aren't null. This would be the easiest and
fastest way to fix the problem.
