I ran into a weird bug today and am not sure if anyone has an answer to this one:

I have a form with a PAGEFRAME1 with 10 Pages (because it has so many controls)

In order to speed up the load time I put all controls for certain pages into a container class and add them to the page only when it is ACTIVATED.

So I have this code in the ACTIVATE method of the PAGE 8 to add the container

* Activate method of Page 8 of PAGEFRAME1
------------------------------------------------------
ASSERT NOT EMPTY(THISFORM.PAGEFRAME1.PAGE7.GRDDIAG1.COLUMN1.CONTROLSOURCE)
* ^ this condition is fine

IF TYPE("THISFORM.PAGEFRAME1.PAGE8.CONTAINER1")#"0"
THISFORM.PAGEFRAME1.PAGE8.AddObject('CONTAINER1','pmclaim_wlpplan')
ENDIF

ASSERT NOT EMPTY(THISFORM.PAGEFRAME1.PAGE7.GRDDIAG1.COLUMN1.CONTROLSOURCE)
* this fails! ^ after the ADDOBJECT for page 8, the controlsources for PAGE 7 are EMPTY!

DODEFAULT()
THIS.REFRESH()
-----------------------------------------------------

So the problem is that after the ADDOBJECT method for PAGE 8 is run, the CONTROLSOURCES for the grid in PAGE7 are wiped out!

Could that have to do with the fact that possibly for a brief moment one of the INIT methods in CONTAINER1 sets the DATASESSION to 1 and then back to what the private datasession is for that form?

Why can't I change the datasession# in a form with private datasession and then change it right back?

Sorry for so many questions at once!

Thanks again for any advice in advance!
