The function parses some parameters, instantiates an object, and then sets various properties of the that object based on the parameters. In one location, I am getting halfway through the code that sets the properties of the message form, and then errors out with an "oTouchMessage is not an object" error. I enabled detailed logging including a memory dump and it shows that the value of my object has reverted to null. This is very odd because it happens after I have set 3 or 4 different properties of the object in code. It doesn't happen every time, but it always happens at the same line of code if it is going to happen.

>Has anyone ever seen a situation where an object instance randomly reverts to null?

Randomly: nope. But if the object is activeX: strange, surprizing: yes, more often than vanilla vfp..
if the object is vanilla vfp add a complex watch expression to see where vartype(oMissing) changes to "X"
before the error-throwing line is reached - that is if you don't set/object access on each line.
