Hi All,

This is really an application design issue I'm having, I think. If
anyone has any ideas I'd be greatly appreciative!

I have an intranet app which uses the current Windows username to set
some session variables - actually mainly a list of current projects for
each user, taken from the database. Users need to be logged in to the
local network to access the app, so logging in is automatic. The session
setup checks for the existence of the session user struct, so an update
only occurs if the session is new or timed out. As the app is used all
day every day, the session timeouts are long.

However, if a user adds a new project and assigns it to several users,
those users will only see it when their session times out. What I'd like
is a way to clear *all* sessions for that application. If that's not
possible, there's several other scenarios I've thought about - setting
an application variable with a timestamp when a project is added and
including that in the session setup check, or using client variables
stored in the database instead of sessions (but I'm not even sure if
that will help).

Thanks in advance...

Kay.
