The object  code that you provided worked great. I will
just use a private object array  instead of trying to
setup a collection  that is part of another object.

Does anyone know of any good sample object model
spreadsheets?

The following Microsoft link is one of the best I
found about creating objects  in Excel.
www.microsoft.com/.../ch\

However, the link refers to sample spreadsheets
ListComboWiz.xla and EnumWindows.xls that as far as I
know cannot be downloaded.
