I would recommend: var pop:Object = new myInfo(); pop.userName = "fred"; pop.age = 39; PopUpManager.addPopUp(pop, this, ...) This pattern follows regular AS instantiation patterns and you are only replacing addChild with addPopUp. Otherwise, createPopUp will finish validating the popup and you'll re-validate after setting the properties.
