As was mentioned earlier the issue is in the relationship between A and B. As a 
user you may have permission to both A and B and can access either. The A view 
though may have  permissions that do not allow it to access B. As was pointed 
out the ability of A to select from B is dependent on As permissions, not the 
the user initiating the select.
