Thanks Andrew

Prior to making any change, I set up a new user for myself with full rights, and the department(s) showed up correctly for the new user - I had also changed a 2nd department name to see if it would work.

Editing the department restrictions can only be done as SYS, correct?
I edited the rights for my original user profile, and it has worked. I then re-set the department name, re-entered the FR, and the name did NOT change again. At least I know how to trick it for now.

When working in the FR in the past, I've noticed that there are other things (don't ask me specifically what - I don't make changes or work in FR very often) that I just can't do unless I'm logged in as SYS. Is that intentional? I am the only one in our organization with full access to all functions - at least supposedly full access. One that comes to mind is editing the department tree or creating departmental masks.

Thanks
Marc
