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.

Thanks for the smile, Steve! I will start refactoring now in hopes that it will come out soon... HAHA

From a lot of the code I've seen, no refactoring would be necessary. 😀
