Unable to edit some wordpress users

Web designers, WordPress  

Finally solved a nagging problem in my wordpress test system.   I was unable to edit some test users, not all – some were okay .

Message received was:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class __PHP_Incomplete_Class could not be converted to string in C:\web\wp28\wp\wp-includes\formatting.php on line 405
