    As a side bar... There is a rumor (and I STRESS the word RUMOR!) I heard and I can't confirm it or deny it. The rumor says that when you use any of the XML extensions in SQL Server, that it automatically allocates at least 1/8th of the available memory to the task. Does anyone know of a reference that can confirm or deny that rumor?

    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.
