Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be
converted to string in on line
************************************************************ ****************

I can only find the change log for PHP 5.2 identifying this type of
error, nothing on how to fix it. I have updated PHP to 5.2.3 on
Apache 2.2.x on a BSD Box 6.x If some one could explain to me what I
am doing wrong, and what I need to do to fix it that would be swell.
A point of note is that my $dbh is being created in my class
constructor as a private. The method that is calling the prepare and
execute statements is a public. I don't thing I'm trying to do
anything new or exotic, I don't think I'm trying to convert the object
to a string, just execute the query statement....

$begin = $this->dbh->beginTransaction();
if (!$begin) throw new HWIException(ERR0023,23);

$outdc = "";
$outliid = "";
$prep_users = $this->dbh->prepare($sql_users);
if (!$prep_users) {
$msg = $this->dbh->errorInfo();
throw new HWIException(ERR0021 . " " .
$msg[2], 21);
}

$prep_users->bindParam(':username',
$this->userObj->hwi_username,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 16);
$prep_users->bindParam(':title',
$this->userObj->hwi_title,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 4);
$prep_users->bindParam(':firstname',
$this->userObj->hwi_firstname,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
$prep_users->bindParam(':midinit',
$this->userObj->hwi_midinit,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 1);
$prep_users->bindParam(':lastname',
$this->userObj->hwi_lastname,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 45);
$prep_users->bindParam(':priphone',
$this->userObj->hwi_priphone,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
$prep_users->bindParam(':priext',
$this->userObj->hwi_priext,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 10);
$prep_users->bindParam(':secphone',
$this->userObj->hwi_secphone,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
$prep_users->bindParam(':secext',
$this->userObj->hwi_secext,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 10);
$prep_users->bindParam(':fax',
$this->userObj->hwi_fax,
PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
$prep_users->bindParam(':isPI',
$this->userObj->hwi_ispi,
PDO::PARAM_INT);
$prep_users->bindParam(':date_returned', $outdc,
PDO::PARAM_STR);
$prep_users->bindParam(':liid', $outliid,
PDO::PARAM_STR);
