Yes, all the methods are in the same component.  I'm getting no errors at
all, which is whats making me pull my hair out.  When I test this I'm doing
the following:

<cfset user = createObject("component", "user")>
<cfset user.setLogin("test")>
<cfoutput>#user.getLogin()#</cfoutput>
<cfset user.createUser()>

This will display the user name "test" on the page, and will not error when
I run the create user function.  When I look at the database, the dates have
been inserted, and spaces for the login / pass / name(s), not null values.
I'm at a complete loss why this is happening.

Are the methods you are calling in the same component as the createUser
method?

I guess they must be if you can call variables.instance.something and
get the value...

You arent getting any errors thrown?
