Based on the error message, it can't find the createAddress function. I'm assuming it is in the same cfc as your create() method, correct?

Alright, let me try and clean this up a bit :) My user object creates new instances of the address class on initialization, so calling the getBilling() method will return the address object stored in the user object's instance variables. This is the code that is called by the controller (fusebox): <cffunction name="store" output="false" returnType="user" access="public" hint="Create or Update a user"> <cfargument name="userObj" type="user" required="true" hint="User to store." /> <cfset var user = new() /> <cfif arguments.userObj.getID() EQ 0> <cfset user = create(arguments.userObj) /> <cfelse> <cfset user = update(arguments.userObj) /> </cfif> <cfreturn user /> </cffunction> Here is the create() function: <cffunction name="create" output="false" access="private" returnType="user" hint="Insert a new user into the database"> <cfargument name="bean" type="user" required="yes" hint="User object" /> <cfset var billing = arguments.bean.getBilling() /> <cfset var shipping = arguments.bean.getShipping() /> <!--- CFQUERY transaction here ... ---> <cfset arguments.bean.setID(newID.id) /> <!--- Create Billing Address - Here's where the failure occurs ---> <cfset billing = createAddress(billing) /> <cfset arguments.bean.setBilling(billing) /> <!--- Create Shipping Address ---> <cfset shipping = createAddress(shipping) /> <cfset arguments.bean.setShipping(shipping) /> <!--- Link the addresses to the user in the lookup table ---> <cfset createAddressRef(arguments.bean.getID(),arguments.bean.getBilling().getID(), "billing") /> <cfset createAddressRef(arguments.bean.getID(),arguments.bean.getShipping().getID() ,"shipping") /> <cfreturn arguments.bean /> </cffunction> And finally, here's the createAddress() function: <cffunction name="createAddress" output="false" returnType="address" access="private" hint="Create a new address entry"> <cfargument name="address" type="address" required="true" /> <!--- More CFQUERY transactions here ---> <cfset arguments.address.setID(newAddressID.id) /> <cfreturn arguments.address /> </cffunction> On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 15:13:19 -0500, Roland Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Some code would help greatly! > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Ken Dunnington > Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 3:03 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [CFCDev] Passing and returning var scoped objects? > > I have an odd problem, I'm writing a user management system and in my > create() method, I make a call to a function named createAddress() > which accepts an address object and returns that object, updated with > the new primary key.
