Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. From Visual FoxPro, create a program containing the following code:

  *Start of Code
  Child1 = CREATEOBJECT("SessionChild1")
  ? Child1.DATASESSION

  Child2 = CREATEOBJECT("SessionChild2")
  ? Child2.DATASESSION

  DEFINE CLASS SessionChild1 AS SESSION
  	DATASESSION = 1
  ENDDEFINE

  DEFINE CLASS SessionChild2 AS SESSION
  	DATASESSION = 2
  ENDDEFINE
  *End of Code

2. Run the program created in step 1 above. The value for the DATASESSION
  property is 2 for both classes. It should display 1 for Child1 and 2 for
  Child2.
