Sergio,

I think we talk more or less the same thing.
To me it looks like we could not express / read fine enough in english.

Never mind

Agnes

BTW:
The dangling datasession was not there because of an error (normaly the app would stop anyway), it was just because of bad reset.

>>Personaly, I didn't see why they need those extra datasession, it would be much simpler and faster if they would stay within the one with the data. But again, there might be reason I do not see now.

>(Hence having methods like .setFRXDataSession() and .ResetDataSession()) then in a subclassing you are really on a sort of 'thin ice' if anything goes wrong. Somewehere inside current session got changed, then boom some error happens for any reason, and there you are in limbo with dangling datasession.
