    Wouldn't it just be easier and safer to set the FILL FACTOR appropriately and make sure that reindexing was occuring on a regular basis? That would't require any code changes and, therefor, no regression testing.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.

    ________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.
