Back from Easter holidays, I finally had a chance to look into your 
suggestion - thanks.

Seminars unfortunately uses datahandler:RAW for the time being, and 
transfers data using piVars/POST array.

Have you considered creating a "datahandler:SESSION" to store values in 
a session? In a multistep it might be desirable to only save data to DB 
in last step.
