I found code in the samples that shows how to add items to these drop downs:
Public Sub Page_Load(sender As object, e As System.EventArgs)
Dim contactstring As String
contactstring = "Contact us"
Editor1.StyleDropDown.Items.Add(new ListItem("Style 1","Heading"))
Editor1.StyleDropDown.Items.Add(new ListItem("Style 2","Head"))
Editor1.StyleDropDown.Items.Add(new ListItem("Style 3","Subhead"))
Editor1.StyleDropDown.Items.Add(new ListItem("Style 4","NormalRed"))
Editor1.StyleDropDown.Items.Add(new ListItem("Style 5","Comment"))
End Sub
I am using the editor in a datagrid in the edit template and the footer(new item). I have the editor functioning correctly, but the population of these dropdowns, using the above code causes the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any ideas why this is happening?
