My problem was that the Create method wanted to TTreeView and Self was a
form. There was no other code other than the standard Delphi stuff for a form
with one button and the unit that had the my class in it. The only code in this
unit was a Create method the called the inherited method. I do not think that
the other code was causing the problem but what fixed it was using "nil".
