Dirkjan,
   Thanks for such a quick reply! Instead of reposting all of my
current local gems (long list), I will point you towards my response
to Dan (see above post). My most recent attempts have been with the
edge version (as you will notice data_objects is V-0.9.12 and extlib
is V-0.9.11). I am running ruby 1.8.6 and MySQL 4.1.20. Recommend to
update?

Thanks Again! Kenderson
