Thanks, Michel.

The library object *is* the first thing being loaded. I was wondering if I could save myself a few steps during future development by only loading one custom object which, in turn, would load other library objects, too. However, it appears that each object needs to be loaded separately, if it will be depending on the contents of a previous object.

Thanks again!
