This class is used to manage data sessions and handle data updates in all forms or formsets in the current data session. It enables an Application object to easily iterate through sessions to provide Windows-closing behavior during Exit or Shutdown. It also provides generic QueryUnload behavior for forms and formsets, and generic session-wide Update and Revert code. You can use it to evaluate whether any data has been changed in a session before you use your own conflict handling procedure.

Remarks
This class works with free tables as well as tables in databases. Observe the transactions limit (5).
To use, drop the class on a project or form or, from the Component Gallery Item shortcut menu, select Add to Project or Add to Form. When you add the class to a form, Visual FoxPro places the class on the form. You can then specify the appropriate property values and provide any necessary input and output objects. When you drop the class on a project, you can choose between adding the class or creating a subclass.
See Guidelines for Using Visual FoxPro Foundation Classes for more information on using foundation classes.
