wierd getcwd error

[Richard D. Williams]

Well, I did not run setperms on the new install. So that may solve may 
problem.  I will try it tonight.
Yes, the install went fine. No hiccups.
I was on 5.0.10D4 and move to 5.0.13D4 with add'l 64 users to get a 
total of 128.
There's really nothing fancy here, user hits hot key P, a screen pops 
up, they select what they want to print,
I call the routine, in that routine there's a form command, same old, 
same old.

I hope the setperms solves the problem.

We'll see. Thanks

Richard
