I tried Perrin's suggestion, but got the same error message
(Can't call method "Name" on an undefined value at....)
On further investigation, the problem seems to be that the object
is losing its namespace. In the first handler (where I define
the object and store it in pnotes) I'm logging the value of
"ref $dbrecord" and getting the correct Class::Object value. In
the second handler (where I retrieve the object from pnotes
and try to access a method), I'm logging the "ref $dbrecord" and
getting a blank (""). Seems that this must be the problem...
any other ideas?
thanks
Eric
