texte = Thanks Bill. Are you suggesting the semicolon separating the two commands is being tripped up by permissions, or the [shell] context as a whole is being tripped up? The first line of the command works, and those results display. It's doing the second command that fails. So the [shell] itself is working.

Thanks Bill. Are you suggesting the semicolon separating the two commands is being tripped up by permissions, or the [shell] context as a whole is being tripped up? The first line of the command works, and those results display. It's doing the second command that fails. So the [shell] itself is working.
