What base class are you subclassing your class of?

Your code will only work if the class is a 'stand-alone' class, such as a Form. All other control-classes (such as buttons and textboxes) have to be contained in a form or another container. In that case, you would use AddObject() instead. There are other classes, such as Custom or Session, that simply don't have a visible representation...
