Hi, Michael, Adam!
I included the LADS into the MySQL database, as promised.
The high voltage table for them is LAD_HV.
I also gave all necessary permissions to user "HVGUI" to do whatever it
needs - so Adam's GUI should have no problem writing to the new table.
Please check it out and let me know if there are any problems...
