If a type is set to nothing or null, then everything that is associated with it doesn't exist anymore until it is instantiated again.

In VB.Net, when I set c to Nothing, I don't have access to that object anymore because the object doesn't exist. It's Null

        Dim i As Integer
        Dim c As New Class1
        i = c.a
        i = c.b
        c = Nothing
        i = c.a
        i = c.b



Am I confused,ignorant of something or what?
I thought this is what I was doing in BMax.

Type t
	Global a:Int
	Method New()
		a = a + 1
	End Method
End Type


n:t=New t

j:t=New t

Release n
Release j
FlushMem

t.a = 5
Print t.a
