Helen,

One last thing which has just come up in relation to this.

In my webmodule, I create quote a number of queries on the fly during
the execution of my DLL. Do I have to do anything with these queries
in terms of attaching them to the session - bearing in mind they are
IBOQUERIES?

Thanks again,

Stewart Bourke
