That was the final piece...  I sincerely appreciate the extra set of 
eyes as when I reviewed the docs, I saw in the examples that they 
followed the SQL statements wasn't paying close attention to the fact 
that the query had already been closed quoted.

Perhaps this is a silly questions, but wouldn't it make more sense for 
more=1 to be the default and then to let folks disable it?  

What is the benefit of running without more=1???  presuming that you 
could essentially make any list excessively large with the ml?

Regards,

Barry
