Chuck,

Ok, will put a trap in the setXXX method and see if that catches it if it 
happens again.

I am not quite clear on what you mean about checking relationships (plural) to 
this entity in the model.
My base object is Transaction
My to-one related object is Organisation
This relationship does have a Delete Rule of Nullify. I understood this to mean 
that if the related Organisation is deleted, we will be left pointing to null. 
That could explain it, though I am certain that the related object was never 
deleted.
I have in any case set it to Deny instead, which I take to mean disallow the 
deletion of the related object while I am pointing at it.

With Nullify delete rules, would the setXXX get called, but the validateXXX not 
called?

Thanks
John
