Well, seems that worked. I downloaded and installed an update to .NET on the web server, which brought me up to the current version. After that, I set the permissions on the folder that contained the data files to allow the machine's ASPNET account to access it. Everything now works fine.

Thanks a million for all your suggestions and help, Michel.
