Sorry...this (faith one) was by mistake. I was abt to send it to my colleague but unknowingly said reply from my mailbox to this thread. Tried to recall this message but it doesn't help.

You can try removing them from the code given by Asha. -----Original Message----- From: Patti Lee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2007 12:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Next lowest number from array (or list).
