>>>I think I should clarify it. First off all documentation says it, not me. Create two forms one with a private data session. Set confirm on in command window, call the forms, while the one with the default datasession has confirm on, the other has set confirm off.

>No never a pain Bill. Talking to UT folks is always a pleasure for me. Yes either would work. I didn't mean the place. This happened to me first with deleted setting and than I manually did it in my forms (most of them had private datasessions). My English is not well enough. Sorry.

Glad to get that settled. One down, one to go.
