2 wires connected at the switch. Red and black. There's a second red wire
connected to a screw in the back of the switch's box; I'm assuming that's
ground.
I haven't opened the fixture, since it's been painted to the wall several
times it'll be quite a project. If it's important though, I will.
Thanks again.

If you open the fixture how many wires do you see? Colors? Color of
wires at switch?

Hmmmm! Sounds like a 3-way switch. Is there another switch location
which controls the fixture?
To get the fixture loose run a penknife around the edge until you cut
thru the paint.
If you're in luck power will have been brought directly to the fixture
*then* to the switch. (Which, IIRC, is code?)
