If you need access to the session object in only a couple of methods, I would pass the session's reference

As to recoding for the 4th time - that is your decision

If you need a session where you can use addobject(), you may use a toolbar or a form with a private datasession and not make it visible. This is what I used back in the vfp6 days

But I do not know whether that works with OlePublic
