Hi Steve,
Have you solved this already?
If not, when you copied the code between machines was there some effort to
ensure that the 'copy' points to the RDBMS/tbls on the same box/different
box - or does the original box have code that points to tbls on itself, and
the second box have code that runs on 'it' but (still) points to tbls on the
first box (not on itself)?
[make sense?]

PS what's the difference between "production" and "live"?
