>>It sure would be nice if VFP 7.0 allowed container objects to have their own datasession. VFP would be a much more flexible and independent object development environment if datasessions were available at the business element level. My frameworks would benefit greatly.

Hey Christof,
Well I actually go one step more. I have a form within a form. The outer form contains a data-driven VFP outlook style bar, MS StatusBar Control and VFP toolbar – all of which can be added or removed from the menu. The inner form contains a PageFrame that is controlled by the outlook style bar. I populate the PageFrame with various data entry and analysis interfaces – container objects. Each one of these interfaces has it’s own data requirements. I was hoping to create a separate data session for each of these interfaces. Anyway, thanks for your help.
