Releasing references to control objects

In connection with developing a mediator-type control in a form to pass messages between control objects, I have created an array containing references to various control objects on the form. I need to release the references to release the form.

I have tried...
* redefining the array (thisform.aArray = .F.),
* destroying each reference individually (FOR i = 1 TO lnArrayLen; thisform.aArray[i].Destroy(); ENDFOR), and
* setting each reference to an object to .F. (FOR i = 1 TO
lnArrayLen; thisform.aArray[i]=.F.; NEXT)

I have tried each approach in the Destroy() and Unload() events of the form. Nothing seems to result in the references being release so I may release the form.

Trying to release the form with references to contained objects still active causes a truly spectacular crash and burn.

I had the problem once in Visual Objects, but I cannot for the life of me remember how I solved it.

I must be overlooking something very simple which is going to make me feel really stupid when someone points it out to me.

Any help? Thanks.
