Weird behavior of Management Console

Hi to all,
I've witnessed this weird behavior with the Management Console, and I'd like to understand what can cause it:
I've wrote the metadata for a SAS Library, but when I try to import the tables through Management Console it just freeze, like it's blocked...I've tried to give to the user all the possible rights, without any result.
However, I've been able to create and update the metadata with this code:

options metaserver="xxxxx"
metaport=xxxx
metauser="xxxxx"
metapass="xxxxx"
metaprotocol="Bridge"
metarepository="Foundation";

libname DPEFdest meta library="DPEF Destination" metaout=data repname="Foundation";

libname _temp meta repname="Foundation" library="DPEF Destination"
metaout=data;

proc metalib;
omr (library="DPEF Destination"
metarepository="Foundation");
update_rule=(delete);
report;
run;

libname _temp clear;

By running this code, I can then access to the metadata of my dataset, and use it as I want...
Any idea?

Hi:
This is probably a question for Tech Support. You should be able to register a library and import tables using SAS Management Console. Although your code solution works, what's happening may signal some configuration problem that should not go unchecked.
