Dale, I really did not mean to upset your stomach. *WS was the issued command that comes with the MAPICS code. However, since I can't see exactly how you have your security set up, and you have just tested *WS functionality, it sounds like you have it covered. It may be that you eliminated the *WS issue when you were addressing the security requirement and limited the access to the command line. Do the employees run queries or does your IT department control them? Just curious what level of security you have on your individual files.
