  Interesting question, thanks Steve
  Haven't  used  masking much (except for sensitive customer information)

  Crud... "Random Masking".  It thought it was an early question about Halloween.

  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.
