Farouk-

Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier. I think the problem might have been some subtle differences between the existing table in the DBC and the results of the query. It turned out that the better way to do this was just make the table a free table and recreate it with the query. As soon as I did this, it was like magic and worked.

Thanks for your contribution -- it did help.
