There are two cases, if you are interested in the data or not. In the first case the reporter must be given a valid and unique ID. Null is not a valid value, since it never matches any other value including other nulls. In the second case you can skip the line. /Nicklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
