Hello,

I'm using Suse 9.3 with KDE

Ihave installed Sesame in  /usr/local/Sesame

To activate Sesame or the Designer I use a script in which I can set some enviroment variables - the designer script is:

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Sesame
export PATH
export SESAME_BROWSER="firefox"
export SESAME_HELP_PATH="/usr/local/Sesame/HelpFiles"

/usr/local/Sesame/Program/sdesigner

This works, I have the same script in /root and in /home/user
(user = the name of the user)

The problem is, that if I design a database as ROOT I can only save it somewhere in the path /ROOT  or below.

If I design a database as USER I can only put it in the path /HOME/USER

This is not a problem, but with SESAME I can't access as ROOT the database from the USER. SESAME does not allow me to go to /HOME as ROOT. This is inconvenient because sometimes I'm root and sometimes I'm the user and I need access to the base on both levels.............

Did I miss something, I made some tries with other variables as SESAME_ROOTDIRS_PATH but this does not work.

I can always copy the databses with some tricks from the script, but that's only a workaround. Is there another solution?
