Error on Component Options window when downloading in window

If I import the same file, it adds a new object around my existing
component. The result is that I do not get the same error. The “Component
Options” menu no longer works on the component unless I then explode the
component to get it back to the same condition it was when I saved it last.
The Component Attribute box does work however I need to step through the
new object created etc. I also get the same error back again when I save
the component and then open it again. Does that help?
