Did you attempt an upgrade at an earlier time? Sounds like the table has already been made at a previouse attempt.

Cheers

That is what I thought, too. No, I had never made an attempt to do this upgrade before.... I do not know HOW I got that table in there!

In any case, as I was playing, I did see it was a problem. When logging on, a field in Sessions that is needed was missing. So I deleted the table, and then reinstalled the Table from 2.1.2.

Now it seems to be working! Smile

OK, I figured it out.... I think!

I DID put a second version of Links up- a dummy version- to test GT Community offline. THAT install muxst have put Sessions in there, but the main, online install did not have the .def file, so it did not see the Sessions table!
