Thank you both,

I think I caught it before it got garbage collected.  I knew enough about its contents to do a Dictionary allInstances select:[]

  why not just put "self halt" in the line of code just before the dictionary assignment?

  I assume you've called "Smalltalk addToStartupList:" on your class and implemented the #startUp method.

    In a saved image I have a dictionary that I clear (set to a new Dictionary) in a startup method.  I really need to be able to inspect that dictionary before it gets "newed".  Is there any way to do that (I suppose I would need to know how to interfere with startup)

    Thank you,
    Derek
