My application object (call it oAPP) base class is container. I've added properties for various objects, including a user (aka security) object (call it oActiveUser). So I have a hierarchy (?) like this: oAPP.oActiveUser is an object created like this:

oAPP.oActiveUser = CREATEOBJECT( 'Login' )

Now, in a method for the oActiveUser I want to refer to a parent method like this:

this.parent.SomeCode()

this.Parent is an expression that can't be evaluated.

1. Which hemasphere of my brain is gone?
2. If neither, than how can I refer generically to the parent?
3. Is my oApp's property oActiveUser "just" a reference (i.e. pointer) to the CREATEOBJECT object?

TIA.
(p.s. on the road, searching kb is hard. Sorry!)
