Ok... confusion has set in, Richard... in your latest post, you say "A large number of the reports do have to be bang up to date" and in a previous post, you say "There are a large number of reasons why we don't care if the data in these reports is correct to the second"

Which is it, really?

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.
