    You could, indeed. But way back when, someone suggested that FAST FORWARD isn't as fast as naming the options separately. I did a test back then and they were right. I don't know if it's changed with SPs, revision changes, etc, etc.

    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.
