Grids do their own thing, I've had the alias switch simply by moving some other application window across them. This is well known to people trying to run a report while a grid still has focus. But that's within a single datasession so far as I know, so I could be quite wrong about them causing probs when switching ds.

Some of my session objects do run forms which run in the same datasession. Do you think that's necessarily a bad thing?

BTW, I'm sitting here wearing the Hackers T shirt from your Golf Club, shorts and thongs (or flip-flops or whatever you call them. It's 32 deg C outside :-)


>I get nervous about switching, because if a menu or a form is bound to data in the private session via SKIP FOR in the menu or a bound grid on the form and somehow it decides to refresh while the datasession is switched, things go awefully wrong (as I'm sure you know).
