      Try doing a wrkflr, and option 14 (authority). As I recall, document <B   
R>library objects (QDLS) have their own version of object security, which
   I   think has little to do with OS400 security. BTW, I've been told that Q   
DLS
   is going away very soon. I'm not sure if that's just doom and gloom= hype.
