I am getting the following error, "unable to get property Initialize of undefined or null reference" when my form loads for some reason.  The script that I am trying to have run only on change of a field, not on load is:

function CommunicationTypeCommercialOnChange()
{
var CommunicationType = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_communicationtype").getText();
var RecordType = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_recordtype").getText();

if ((RecordType == null || RecordType =='undefined' || RecordType =='') && (CommunicationType == null || CommunicationType =='undefined' || CommunicationType ==''))
{
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress1").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress2").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresscity").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressstate").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresszip").setValue(null);
}
else if ((RecordType == "Commercial") && (CommunicationType == null || CommunicationType =='undefined' || CommunicationType ==''))
{
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress1").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress2").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresscity").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressstate").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresszip").setValue(null);
}
else if ((RecordType == "Commercial") && (CommunicationType == "Clincal Transition"))
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress1").setValue('PO Box 999');
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress2").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresscity").setValue('Appleton');
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressstate").setValue('WI');
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresszip").setValue('54912-0999');
}
else if ((RecordType == "Commercial") && (CommunicationType != "Clincal Transition"))
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress1").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress2").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresscity").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressstate").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresszip").setValue(null);
 }
else if (RecordType != "Commercial")
 {
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress1").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressaddress2").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresscity").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddressstate").setValue(null);
 Xrm.Page.getAttribute("nhs_returnaddresszip").setValue(null);
 } 
}

Is there anything that you can see why this script wouldn't work properly?

    This is now fixed...I had the () in the event name for onchange.  Removed that and the error is gone.
