cannot unmarshal code objects in restricted execution mode

[Sam Brauer]

At the risk of annoying folks, I thought I'd re-post a question I asked a 
couple of days ago that no one responded to.  
(Yes, I'm really that desparate.)

I promise I won't post about this problem again on this list.

Any help would be much appreciated....

Thanks!!!! (and sorry for double-posting),
Sam
