>I am told that SP3 includes a new base object called 'session' that will allow setting up dataenvironments programatically. I have installed SP3 and cannot find 'Sesssion'. Can someone tell me how to find it. Also, I installed SP3 off the CD but it apparently did not do any updating of my help files. Was it supposed to ? Thanks.

Session is a class - you can create it using CREATEOBJ() etc.

There is an add-on help file installed when SP3 is loaded, called VFPSP3.CHM, which contains the documentation updates. The FOXHELP.CHM file is not updated with the new information directly.

If you have the MSDN, the July update to the MSDN incorporated the details from VFPSP3.CHM into the MSDN help system.
