Cannot create Contact object

[CraigYellick]

I am trying to add secondary contacts to accounts via the API. The following line fails with "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Dim c As New CommitCRM.Contact()

The class is CRM.Contact so maybe that's the root cause here More details.

I got that namespace from the metadata. Included it for clarity.

Namespace ...
Public Class Contact
Inherits [Object]
...


I fixed this. I had neglected to initialize the API before calling the constructor. Duh!

Thanks for the quick response.
