Turns out, this may be the correct message, just not the right line of code,
because the error is internal to VFP itself.
The two forms this base class is on that also errored (because this base
class is on several forms) had a ControlSource set on the control.
The ControlSource was just a variable name. This variable had not been
declared or initialized prior to calling the form.
What I have seen happen in the past, VFP will generate the variable as a
Private that goes out of scope when the form closes. 

We've cleared the ControlSource that isn't needed on one form and fixed a
typo on the second form. We'll see if that error pops up anymore.

Thank you Eric and Richard,

I've decided on the Try/Catch with an attempt to handle it again, just in
case this is just a timing issue.

When the code is implemented, the error will hopefully be swallowed, and the
support staff will be able to continue their day.

Wrap the whole thing in a TRY..CATCH and see what the exception object can
tell you.

Maybe iterate through the objects rather than use SetAll and find the
trouble child?
