Hi Stefan,

My problem is that I need the variable that holds the object reference internally. The NAME property could have just as easily been a custom property.

In it's simplest form:

ox = CREATEOBJECT("myclass")

I need the "ox" in the INIT.

>In general, the .NAME property is meaningless unless an object is parented, in which case it equals the object's name within the parent. This makes sense since an object can have any number of names but at most one parent.
