    Jeff, thank you for taking the time to answer. 🙂

    I suspected that there would likely be some overhead involved. And thank you for the links, I'll check them out straight away. I also read your Tally Table article - fantastic stuff. I think I found my new religion as an anti-RBAR convert. This forum is outstanding!

    Apologies for the late response, again! :blush: I managed to burn the candle at both ends and at the middle. 😛

    Thank you very much for the kind words about the Tally Table article. I'm very happy to add you to the "Anti-RBAR Movement". 🙂

    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.
