Subject Re: effect of nullifying an object reference From Gaetano <gaetanodd@hotmail.com> Date Thu, 1 Oct 2020 16:49:46 +1000 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Thanks Bruce. Just one more question: releasing a variable that doesn't doesn't exist doesn't produce an error, but attempting to release an object that doesn't exist produces an error. I guess taht for objects I need to do something like if type("oRef") # "U"     release oRef endif Would that work? Cheers, Gaetano.
