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?  If not, I might as well
unsubscribe.
