Are you sure you weren't dealing with a previous instance of your old class? I think this kind of a change forks the class def so that new instances have the new superclass, but old instances still have the old class and old superclass (anObsoleteYourClassnameHere). I could be wrong, but tI think that's how it works. -- Randal L.
