C'mon guys, I *said* I'd checked permissions. That should have given you a clue. But just to make it clear, I was a programmer for over 45 years. Much of that was at the system level on Unix. And if you'd read my query a little more carefully, you'd see that I'd referenced two different databases with the same permissions, one of which worked and one of which didn't. So far, I've gotten 3 responses, none of which were useful. Don't any of the LO gurus frequent this list?
