The reason I've tried to avoid doing this in the past is because ms sql server loops are slow ( funny that, considering how quickly it deals with record sets )... not to mention it's a lot more code in the sp where there aren't any native list functions -- or you have to build your own sql server udf's for ms sql 2000... just my 2c...
