doesn't stay set?</DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>I'm writing rules in different agenda groups and witnessing
something curious.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Right now when I put my fireAllRules() in a callback that is
triggered every couple of seconds I have to do this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2>Callback executes on receipt
of a heartbeat message:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2>{</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2>
session.setFocus("my_agenda");</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2>
session.fireAllRules();</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2>}</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New, monospace" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>What I would prefer to do is this is set my agenda group
external to the callback so I have the liberty to simply use the callback to
execute rules on whatever agenda I give focus to elsewhere:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>But this doesn't work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>My understanding is that unless you explicitly set the
agenda-group each time, then fireAllRules() resets your agenda group to
"MAIN"?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Is there a way to get the session to retain focus on the
agenda group I specify until I see fit to change it?</FONT></DIV>
