I just re-copied your sp and it is working like a charm. For the life of I don't know what I did to mess it up.

The code does confuse me though. I am having a difficult time following the thought process. I hate to burden you, but if you have some time to explain the code a little, I'm sure I'd learn more about it. If not, I'll just tear it apart next week at the office.

Thanks very much for your help MM. You're a real life saver.
