Chameleon SQLquery Widget

Hi list: 

I am using a sqlquery widget to build a report on employment change in a
mapping application. Having little experience in PostgreSQL and Chameleon, I
managed to upload a shapefile (empchgfinal.shp) to PostgreSQL database,
created a spatial index (gist type, name "emp") for the shapefile and wrote
the following SQL query in the html file. However, when I selected the area
of interest (using ROIManager widget), I can see the area is highlighted, but
when I click on generate report, I got an empty result.  1) What is
sharedresourcename in the SQL Query and Table widgets for and how should it
be specified in the table widget? ("EMP" is a report type out of 4 link
options in the report.html and "emp" is the name for the spatial index in the
shapefile).  2) Is there some thing I should do extra in PostgresSQL so that
this will work? Could someone please give me some guidance as to how I can
fix this?  Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Sincerely,
Jessica Fendos
