The lack of os level permissions is not relevant to this issue - I was
referring to database level users and their permissions on tables. It
does look like you are somehow running your c program as a different
(db) user from who you are using in Pgadmin. As Robert suggested, try
doing 'SELECT user' in both.

Also note that Pgadmin user PQexec and PQgetValue...
