Hmmm, would it have been better if form shows up WITH object?
;-)
At least next step is clear: pipe all Parentclasses of that class from walking the vcx into text file, do createobjects until one works...
Vct mishaps happen, perhaps even vcx...

>The funny fact is that both that object and the form itself live in the same classlib and inherit from the same classlib-in-exe which allegedly can't be found. Other objects from that classlib are instantiated just fine on the same form.
