cannot delete last admin

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 22795
interpreted = N
texte = problem 1:You are not allowed to delete the last ADMIN user, because then you would be unable to administer WebCatalog>This comes up in the webcatalog administration.Why is that I get this message when I am not even trying to delete an admin user? I have 3 users, and only one is admin. I try to delete the other two and it won't let me. I create another admin, and it lets me delete whatever I want, as long as I have two admins. When I get done deleting my files, then I can choose which admin I want to delete, and delete it so that I am left with only one.This is the third time this has happened to me. The last two times I just ditch and reinstall, but this can't go on like this. Anybody have any ideas?Problem 2(sort of):I use the [protect beta, gamma] tag, because I want to make sure that whoever is accessing those files is from one of those groups. Why can't the admin password access? If I am the admin, and my users want to cut me off from something they can. That doesn't seem quite right. I suppose that one could just make sure that the user never gets the power to code their own stuff, and admin always gets put into this tag so that it will work....anyhow, just thought that was interesting. Thanks for any help, :o)Donovan ---------------------------- Donovan Rittenbach, M.A. CineOptic Productionstel:510-276-4357 cel:510-332-5723 fax:510-276-4239 zen7@cineoptic.com http://www.cineoptic.com---------------------------- Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
