Now I understood what's up. Any object's code runs in the DS in which the object was created. If your menu manager creates your form, and menu manager is in DS 1, then your form's DS will also be 1.

Now you can

1- have DoForm as a .prg (i.e. DS-free) and have it just register your form in the Menu Mgr
2- pass the DS number to the menu manager so it'd change to it before creating your form
3- pass the DS number to the menu manager so it'd change the created form's datasessionID
4- pass the caller form to the menu manager so it'd use its dataSessionID in either of the previous two ways
5- have the caller form do (3) (which is, IIRC, what you're doing now)
