TomSorry Tom, but the application object has nothing to do with cookies. It is a 'global' session, for lack of a better term, and doesn't need to concern itself with cookies or other means of identifying specific users, because nothing in the application object is specific to users - it is data specific to the total application itself. You may be thinking of sessions themselves - the 'session' object and the 'application' object are treated similarly from a programmatic standpoint but are pretty different underneath in terms of operation and purpose.
