    Heh... XXX... did you really mean "Part 30"?

    Random gaps and islands are easy although known gaps and islands make life a whole lot easier test wise. Just build a wad of sequential dates and randomly delete a percentage of them.

    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.
