Is there an easy way to view all the session values without having to know the names of each one? How? I have a little snippet that does it with Cookies but can't find one for sessions. Don

You may want to try this way to trap 2 dimensional array / sessions as well

Hi,

Thanks a lot! They both look like they'll do what I need, though I won't be ably to try them until Tuesday. Don

Both work like a charm. Thanks! I ended up using the second one just to be sure I am not missing anything. Don
