Hi Michael. Yes, this is an update. But it's not getting data from another
table. CF has the data as XML (effectively a structure/array) and needs to
blast it into the db. The primary key (ID) will correspond to what is
already in the db.

It's actually a stored procedure I need to write (for security reasons).
Sorry, I should have said that before. My bad. I think part of the challenge
is passing anything up to 1000 rows of data using @parameters. Here lies the
limitations of SPs! Yup, I'm out of my depth. Glug, glug, glug. ;-)

Gary.
