Oracle 11g: sqlplus: though tables queried do exist, I get a 'table does not exist' when running query, why?

Hello Experts,

Oracle 11g: via sqlplus: connected to db successfully.

I run: SELECT table_name FROM all_tables;
I get all tables available....

However, when I try to simple query such:
SELECT * FROM tableName;
I get: table does not exist

is this a permission issue?
Is there a way via the command line to know what permissions I have?

Regards,

Isn't that kind of what I said?
Look at the timestamps of the replies.  Less than 2 minutes between them.

I was typing mine while you were typing yours and you finished first.  When I started typing my answer there was no other reply there.
