For some reason when I try to start event manager in my application I am getting this error.

# RobotStudio .NET exception: Unknown Error: Event Manager

Base exception: NullReferenceException  
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.  
at EventManager.EventTableViewerUI.ExtractEntryInfo(EventTableEntry entry, Boolean& valid)  
at EventManager.EventTableViewerUI.CreateNewEntryItem(EventTableEntry entry)  
at EventManager.EventTableViewerUI.UpdateListView(EventTable eventTable)  
at EventManager.EventTableManagerUI.PopulateListViewWithEvents()

at EventManager.EventTableManager.InitEventTableManager()  
at EventManager.EventTableManager.EventTableManager\_ExecuteCommand(Object sender, ExecuteCommandEventArgs e)  
at ABB.Robotics.RobotStudio.Environment.CommandBarButton.RaiseExecuteCommand()

I have already put 3 weeks into this project and really do not want to have to start over.  
Please help.
