Steven,

You're correct... BizObjs don't have that property. It's the data environment that you're looking to alter. In your add form's PostInitHook (assuming that you dropped that BizObj directly on the form), get a reference to the DE and make the change:

LOCAL loDE
loDE = YourBizObj.GetDataEnvironment()
loDE.AutoCloseTables = .F.

Hope that makes sense,
---J

After thinking this thing over, it may be better to change the "add form" so that it has its own bizobj (although redundant) and data session rather than sharing the one on the parent form. This would also make some other things on that form easier to do. Any other comments are welcome!
