I was sure that all the defaults of the VAP user and my own were the same, so I never bothered to check the DISPLAY parameter. You were all correct in identifying this as the problem. I put in the following in the VAP .cshrc, and all is fine setenv DISPLAY unix:0.0 Thanks again. Your help was REALLY appreciated. yours faithfully. Dr. A.
