>I understand that using a different datasession for processing would isolate my code from the automatic grid change but its not an option for me since I have hundreds of forms with multiple pages and controls. All these forms and code have been working for years and were designed to save the current alias on entry and reset it on exit. This all worked fine until I started using grids to display rows of data instead of a list control.

Basically, the only other option left is to explicitly specify alias for each command that allows it. E.g. REPLACE ... IN Alias, etc. In other words, your processing code should make sure you're sitting on the right alias...
