I just got back to my desk for the first time since I posted last night. I'll get to work creating the test version of the object.

Despite the shortcomings of my description of the issue I'm encountering, you did answer with valuable information. I hadn't considered that I might be storing an object in any of those variables. I've been under the impression that an object is just a reference, and I thought that printing a reference would have given me something like "HASH0xbf43" rather than the value I was expecting.

Anyhow, thank you and I'll get back with results as soon as I have them.
