Save the file as plain text. Then upload in ASCII mode. The current online file was uploaded in binary mode, and that will prevent it from working. Pat

    3. Pat, I have made the changes you requested and still get the "internal error or misconfiguration" error. Took out all extra spaces, uploaded both input and template files as ascii. Renamed template file as "query.tmp" ... still no success. I'm sure I'll be embarassed when a super-simple solution is found ... but for now, can you assist once more?
