Silvio,

You must have had a SCATTER object, that's one thing I forgot to test for, I'll have to verify the Name property exists. It's quite possible that the error caused the oddity about modifying the class later, I ran into something similar last night. I think I'll move this into an object myself so I can better trap the errors internally.

>Your utility comes just after I spent the weekend cleaning up my gramework for dangling references, so it should be an accurate test. I get the following errors:
>
>Error.......: 1734
>Message.....: Property NAME is not found.
>Message(1)..: RETURN ...
>Program.....: fullname
>Line........: 16
>Line....(1).: 8
>Main........: m:\asx\objref.exe

>Error.......: 107
>Message.....: Operator/operand type mismatch.
>Message(1)..:
>Program.....: findreferences
>Line........: 65
>Line....(1).: 19

>I am running VFP 5.0a on NT 4 SP3

>as for the result, even if it does not report any dangling object if, after running a form I try to modify a base class VFP tells me that is impossible to modify a class that is in use. i can see that I dind't do a proper job in cleaning my framework, or are the above errors that are altering the result of the utility?
