     I assume the vector is allocated on construction and therefore freed   
   on destruction. The 'FieldValues' variable will need to be checked if it   
   is NULL before the vector is used/deleted, and reset to NULL after the   
   vector has be deleted.   
     Based on the vector containing dynamically allocated data I would   
   recommend a separate member function to delete the vector contents   
   before deleting the vector. In fact I would recommend you provide member   
   functions to handle/use the vector usage interfaces, in effect creating   
   a user specific container class to fit your requirements.
