But why using Instance tag alone is not working?

If the requested filed [sic] is non-public and the caller does not have ReflectionPermission to reflect non-public objects outside the current assembly, this method returns nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Means using BindingFlags.NonPublic to grant permission?

I am confused what means "outside the current assembly" and why it applies to my situaion, since I am always using the same assembly -- the current.

George_George wrote:

By just specifying BindingFlags.Instance you are effectively saying get me any instance field that is neither public nor non-public" -- where do you find this point? From MSDN I can not find out. Could you post a link about where you find the statemen please? I want to learn more.

I think CAS does not apply to my sample, and also "Outside the current assembly" also does not applies to my sample. Correct?

What members are neither public nor non-public? Interested to know.

There really isn't a direct link for this. It comes from reading the MSDN documentation (more correctly, reading "between the lines") and experience.

Could I understand "internal" is used to restrict access only to the current assembly (e.g. other assembly can not reference this "internal" type)?

"defined for the current Type".
