For starters, you can have the same table/cursor names open so you can

code consistently moreso rather than having to create bizarre names for

your cursors so they don't collide. Think of several forms each with

their own datasession. The old Sylvan app (which kicked ass for 16+ yrs

and still does so) created bizarre cursor names and kept track of such

names in variables. Would have made life much easier if separate data

sessions were used. Debugging was many times a nightmare.
