Just a quick glance but could you do something like: Insert into properties(mls_number) Values(select mls_number from table where whatever)
I think that's the syntac but you may not need the values piece. I can't remember off hand but I've done combined insert/select statements like that before and it basically inserts a row for each row it selects. Does that make sense? The other thing you could do is a Query of a query before you do the loop and weed it out so you only have the criteria you want coming into the loop. Hope that helps.

Kind of a dumb thing I'm trying to do...trying to combine an insert statement with a where clause. I think I need another approach. Back to the drawing board...
