Hi Megan,

I understand from your question that you are encountering an error saying 'Invalid or deleted object.' The error occurs when you try to set the 'UserData' parameter of the 'lb' object.

The error message indicates that the object 'lb' does not exist, or may have been deleted/overwritten. You can do the following to try and resolve the error:

• Ensure that you have declared/assigned the variable 'lb' before setting its parameter.
• Debug your code, set a breakpoint at this line of code, and then hover the cursor over the object. If it is defined, you will see a pop up with their value, and they will be listed in the Workspace panel.
• Make sure that you do not delete the object before referring to it while setting its parameter.
• Check that the variable has the correct data type, and has a property 'UserData'.

Hope this helps!
