Re: session help

sorry for the confustion,
I have several different types of variables that I would like to store in
Session. I was wondering if it would be better to use a struct or an array of
some sort to store these values in Session.

Are you asking if you should store values using a bidimensional array or a
unidimensional array that would store structures ?

IMO a struct would give a better lisibility and type safety. An array could
be acceptable if the "property" index uses named constants (for lisibility)
and if all cells are of the same type...

If this is not what you are looking try to be more explicit when asking a
question...
