>>>Creating a global object from inside of a form doesn't give me any warm fuzzy feelings. (for non-Codemine lurkers: it really creates an object that belongs to _SCREEN).

>And I don't see how using CreateGlobalObject() can help here...what if you want to open two forms at the same time, with private data sessions? How can the your custom CDE contained within the screen be visible to both forms, and the forms have private datasessions, all at the same time? I digress...and maybe I'm off my rocker here...*grin*

>How about adding a property to the form (let's call it oCdeCombos). Be sure your appStartArrays class is not marked to have a private data session.<<
