Florian, What you do is correct if the objects pointed by the list are still alive. I have the following suspicion: In your MChip constructor, you create an histogram (say TH1F). This histogram is added into the list of objects in current directory. In the second call to the MChip constructor, in case you create an histogram with the name, the already existing histogram with the same name is deleted (in this case you should get a Warning), but in TList, the first MChip will contain an invalid object NHitHist. You should do the following in your MChip constructor. You create the NHitHist object and immediately NHitHist.SetDirectory(0). Rene Brun
