    Thanks. Is it possible to put this into a function? Or how would I use that within a select statement?

    Sure. I'd make sure that it was an "Inline Table Valued Function" for performance but there's no reason why this couldn't be encapsulated for reuse in such a manner.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
