Dale, That is exactly what we did for our client, I haven't carpoint as yet. But we did a simple comparasion filter on that as well. For example the user could add a rule, whether it was equal grater less than etc.
Certainly not as complex as maybe what Barry was looking for:-) -- Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

Not all are immediately usable for the exact problem at hand, but sometimes an idea behind it sparks a potential solution.
