TypeError raised when running my code

I get the following error when I try run my code.

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

    private function calculateFIX001Value(custfields:Array):Number
    {
        var result:Number = new Number;
        var valueObj:Object;

        try{

                var marketCategory:String = "";

                for each (var custField:Object in custfields)

Here is an indirect answer to help you solve your problem: (as there are lots of things in your code that could potentially be null or undefined and cause this error)

You have almost all your code in a try/catch, so your error isn't actually getting thrown, you're just tracing out the error that was caught.

Throw the error (either by removing the try/catch or throwing it manually in the catch block):

catch(e:Error) {
    Alert.show(e.toString()); //instead of this, for debugging, do the line below:
    Throw e; //this will throw the error, so you will get your stack trace and the line number of error
}

To get the line number of the error and see the stack trace, you need to be running in the debug player or your IDE (eg Flash or FlashBuilder).

TypeError: Error #1010 is also known as "Null Pointer Exception", meaning you trying to access a null object property.

If you look at the line the stack trace tells you, you might found the reason without much problem.
