Roger, Wow, you are really prescient. I didn't know that about the double-asterisk. Thank you answering the question I haven't gotten around to asking yet and solving the problem that has been bugging me for a few days.

If you had only 1 asterisk (i.e. ABC.XYZ.* ) then you would fail security if the queue was called 'ABC.XYZ.QUAL3.QUAL4'. But would be ok against 'ABC.XYZ.QUAL3' Therefore, use the double asterisk when there could be "n" qualifiers to a queue name. ===== David A.
