I was using a scalarvakue but could not get it to save the value. I inserted a slider and had it remember value, hid it, and that worked to increment by one each a button is clicked.

Another way (I figured before I saw your response) would be to use an external configuration file, read the value and increment it. Here is a snippet which counts all design loads (and reloads). http://proatech.com/design/design_load_counter.bpd You could modify it and trigger when your session is complete.

It will stop the design from loading asger a certain number of sessions. If more sessions are required how could this counter be reset? Thanks
