Operating system and version (32/64bit) : windows 7 32
.Net Framework version : 4
Office name and version(32/64bit) : office 2010 32
Browser name and version : firefox 35.0
SeleniumWrapper version : 1.0.23.0

What steps will reproduce the problem with a public website ?

I have a button in a Access form to call a site.
I replaced my code for the following
   Dim selenium As New SeleniumWrapper.WebDriver
   selenium.start "firefox", "http://www.google.com/"
   selenium.Open "/"
   selenium.Type "name=q", "Eiffel tower"
   selenium.Click "name=btnG"
I got the same error

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

When i press the button to call the site it shows firefox and the site but it 
doesn't type Eiffel tower in the box.
Behind firefox there is a popup window that says:
Run-time error '-2146232832 (80131600)'
Method <type> failed!
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Please provide any additional information below.

This error was introduced by Firefox 35.
So until it's fixed in the Selenium framework, you can downgrade do Firefox 34
or use the Selenium 2 command:
selenium.findElementByName("q").SendKeys "Eiffel tower"
