    Also Ten Centuries, your solution violates the rules of using the "Quirky Update" by using a Join. I'll add a link to the article on "Quirky Update".

    I don't know that this method is ultimately what I will use as I am skeptical about using it in a production environment, but it is the quickest performing alternative to cursors that I have found.
