Mike,

You are right, and I have been converting them over since I recently  
realized I could do this, so I may have even more conversions than are  
showing up in the timing at this point.  I also would like to know,  
but have not tested to see if it is any faster.  However for some, I  
convert the index once and use it two or more times, so it might be  
faster to leave it alone.

BR,
Dennis
