Bill writes "Can't execute a view that's used after invoking setapprole, due to security (not a valid user).
The view retrieves data from a different DB on same server.
Select rights have been given to "Guest" for base table on the other DB.
The only thing I can see that might be a little "hinky" is that the other DB is still in 6.5 compat mode, but both are 7.0 DBs on NT 4.0 sp[4 or 6].
(& the "other" DB even has application roles in it).
I'm not positive, but I don't believe any service packs have been applied. We're using "mixed" authentication.

Let me know if there's anything else you need - & thanx.

Bill"
