I was wondering, if I have a variable, and Object1, could I do variable = Object1? Is it possible to hold an object in a variable? Thanks.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I'm using Java. :P

That depends entirely on what language you are using.

Provided the type of variable is either the class of Object1 or a class it extends or an interface it implements (Java is statically typed), that will work. But to pe pedantic, you're not storing the actual object in the variable, just a reference to it, since you never work with object values directly in Java.

You forgot to mention the language :-)
In C++ you need operator= in your class.
Do not forget that what you call "object" is also "variable"!
