>Is there any way to use the session object harmoniously with grids? I wrote a control that's based on a container. It creates a Session object and opens all it's data inside the session. Within any of the controls methods that needs access to the controls data I switch the DataSession to point to the controls Session, do whatever I need to do, and then reset the datasession to the default. The reason this is important is that there may be any number of these controls on a form and they all need to have a private copy of the data.

This is understandable since the grids RecordSource is going out of scope, but, it's a real dissapointment because it makes the session object, at least for my purposes, useless. I can't believe that there isn't a way around this problem... How do you give a user defined VFP control it's own DataSession without perturbing the other controls in your system?

VFP cannot split a form into two or more datasessions.

When you set the datasession into one form's method ( at any level ) the whole form go into that datasession.
