Yes, but is it OOP? I really don't do that, I go swapping between private and default datasession and copying these settings from the default into private, but it's also a kludge. I'd be much more happy if the datasession (or the DE) had these settings as properties, so I could set them as needed. Or if it had a SettingsSource property, with possible choices of "factory default / copy from default datasession / copy from named (saved) session" or something like that.
