Jason,

This sounds like an error being thrown by the class code itself, not VFP.

Instead of using CreateObject() does it work if you use

thisform.AddObject( "oPublisher", ... )
...
thisform.oPublisher.DoItsThing()

>I am using a modal form to allow the customer to import data into an accounts software package.

>Within this form, there are 2 Objects created, 1. To Import the Data, 2. To Publish a report.

>I have been told by the accounts software writers that the Import object changes the current path to where the object is located, but does not reset the path to what it was.

>So in my form before I call the Import object, I store the full path to a variable using the following "lcPath = SYS(5)+SYS(2003)". I then execute the Import Object, then after releasing the Import Object I reset the path using the "SET DEFA TO &lcPath".

>I then call the Publish Object to Print to screen the report displaying the import results. I do this in the same way I created the Import Object. When the Report Preview window appears on the screen I get a message "Object not contained in form" and the system reverts back to the main menu.
