One way to do a somewhat "live" passing of variable information between
session is via a table and program routine. 

Create a table named VarHoldTab
Column 1 :  VarName Text
Column 2 : VarValue Text (or whatever type your variable will be. Add columns 
for different types if needed)

The in session one, when changing the value of the variable, always do an update
to this VarHoldTab and update the value.

Update VarHoldTab set VarValue = .yourvariable where VarName = 'yourvariable'

The whenever using the variable in other sessions, always do the following:
Select VarValue into yourvariable where VarName = 'yourvariable'

Then session two will have the same value and it should always be up to date.

You can do the same thing between two databases via and ODBC connection.
Just write the values via the Sattached VarHoldTab.

You have no external files to work with and you can even use Insert After 
triggers to 
do various things such as notifications etc.

Hope this helps.

Subject:        [RBG7-L] - Passing variables from one session to another

Is it possible to pass variable values from one session of R:base to
another?

Maybe with a launch command?
