Well, shame on me. You're right, I cannot write to it. I tried to open a file, and usually when it's a read only file, my editor would tell me that. But it's not the case here, until I actually tried to save it, then it would fail. I was concern about it before and not thinking of actually write on it because the data in there is important and sensitive. Thanks for the help. RDB -- Reuben D.
