So you know it is a host specific problem. You know what you have to do, but 
you don’t want to do it because it is a PITA and could take hours. Start over 
fresh.

Create a new 4D structure. Open the problem structure with another copy of 4D. 
Begin rebuild the component in the new structure dragging and dropping over 
methods and forms. 

But do it is small steps. Start with just a single shared method and any 
related methods and forms it needs to run. Compile the new component. Quit both 
copies of 4D, install the new compiled component in the problem host. Start up 
the host and see if the problem occurs. 

No problem, repeat the above. Do it in small steps until you reproduce the 
error again. Then you will know what methods are causing the problem. You can 
go back and delete items and narrow it down to exactly the method that is 
causing the problem. 

And if the problem completely goes away, then you’ve still solved the problem. 
You’ll just not know what the original problem was.

I’ve had to do this with web pages that would not work correctly. Start small, 
add a little html code, test it. Add more html, test it. Add more, broke it. 
Now I know what part of the html is causing the problem. Fix that, then add 
more html until the page is finally totally rebuilt and working correctly. 

Again giant PITA, I know, but what other choices do you have?
