Roy: Thanks for your help so far.

I might have screwed up my description, if so i'm sorry.

Users are assigned to groups, groups are assigned to queues, rights are 
given to groups on queues. Only the Admin group is given global rights. 
Nobody else has been given any global rights.

I have screwed around with the global rights for all users but it is not 
helping out...

Any other ideas???
