Leo Thanks for taking time and checking it. I figured it out, it was a critical environment variable on my installation that probably needs replaced :-) Me actually. After reading again what you wrote I found it works if I highlight and click the library name in the Browse part of the navigator panel. I was just clicking in the space below it but within the panel, the wrong lib was highlighted when I tried it before.
