    That's similar to my first solution. It's what I always do to create things manually as it's quick and lets you look at what you are going to run.


    Cursors never.
    DTS - only when needed and never to control.

  • That is SO wrong Steve. Dumb maybe, but not slow!

    As to the original question - I would go for the network or display being the problem.

    Yes, my solution was not far off from yours, you just took it the extra step farther to "wrap" it up nicer.
