Gene,

Thanks to Larry's universal dispatch, the resolving the reference shouldn't 
actually be needed.  The controller= parameter will still be in there. [At 
least this is how I see it :)]  Perhaps there is a problem with the 
Transition object itself????

Of course, I could be missing it, but looking at the code, this is my first 
take on the situation.

HTH,
