My program uses a different datasessionid and before it exits, it sets the form's datasessionid back to its original value. It populates a table named "description" (using SQL stmts). Then, I closed the form.

Which datasession does this "description" table exist in? It sounds like your datasession might be closing and removing the cursor you created (probably with the form).
