     Dim view As Attachmate_Reflection_Objects.View

 

     Dim sessionPath As String     

 

     'Get a handle to the existing application object (the workspace)

     Set app = GetObject("Reflection Workspace")

 

     'Create a terminal control for the new session

     sessionPath = Environ$("USERPROFILE") & "\Documents\Micro Focus\Reflection\" & "gettingStarted.rd3x"

     Set terminal = app.CreateControl(sessionPath)

 

     'Create the view used to display the session
