>- I have turned off a feature in the app which upon app startup, opens tables in the default data session of the app *and keeps them open* - this feature is in the app to speed up subsequent openings. I have turned this off so that hopefully, when the user re-opens the form they have worked on, it forces VFP to re-read the table.
