Thanks very much, Tom.
It turns out that the problem was index names. I tried to solve that, but
being unfamiliar with the entire application structure, I ended up defining
the same index name more than once. Sigh.
I do appreciate the insight about case. I've always used only lower case
for table and field names, even back in the DOS days when I was writing
database applications in C.
