Hi all,

In my main app I have a "Navigator".  The user double-clicks on a window name to open it.  One of the windows is "Status Tracking". 

In some windows, the user can double-click on a particular dw row to open another window.  If I double-click from say, the Lab Folder, the Lab Folder opens Status Tracking and sends in a PowerObjectParm consisting of several arrays.  Status Tracking checks for a PowerObjectParm, and if it's not null it processes accordingly (basically automatic retrieve).  If a PowerObjectParm is not passed in, Status Tracking should open in Query mode.

This is working fine when when I open Status Tracking from other windows.  But, when I open Status Tracking from the navigator (ie, no PowerObjectParm sent in) I'm getting a Null Object Reference, line 23 of pfc_postopen event.

Here's how I open Status Tracking from the Lab Folder:

istr_parms.long_arg[1] = ll_salesorder
istr_parms.long_arg[2] = ll_workorder
istr_parms.string_arg[1] = "WO"
OpenSheetWIthParm(lw_sheet, istr_parms, "w_md_status_tracking", w_benchtop_frame, 0, Layered!)

Here's  the Status Tracking pfc_postopen event :

// Save parameters that may have been sent in
if NOT IsNull(Message.PowerObjectParm) then
	istr_parms = Message.PowerobjectParm
	is_retrieval_type = istr_parms.string_arg[1]
	il_salesorder = istr_parms.long_arg[1]
	if UpperBound(istr_parms.long_arg) > 1 then
		il_workorder = istr_parms.long_arg[2]
	end if
	dw_1.Retrieve(il_salesorder)
	if is_retrieval_type ="WO" then
		rb_workorder.Checked = TRUE
		//Scroll to the workorder that was sent in
		// Find this workorder in the list...
		ls_find = string( il_workorder )
		ll_ThisRow = dw_2.inv_find.of_find( "id", ls_find, 1, dw_2.RowCount() )
		if ll_ThisRow > 0 then
			dw_2.ScrollToRow( ll_ThisRow )
			dw_2.SelectRow( 0, False )
			dw_2.SelectRow( ll_ThisRow, True )
		end if
	end if
end if

I'm getting a NULL Object Reference line 23 (is_retrieval_type) when I open Status Tracking from the Navigator.  The Message.PowerObjectParm should be null as I opened the window without any parameters and this whole IF clause should be skipped.  Maybe the Message.PowerObjectParm is not Null and is a hangover from previous calls?  In the debugger, istr_parms isn't even the right structure. How can I check to see if the PowerObjectParm is of the class/type str_parms?
