Again, many thanks for replying to my queries. I may go ahead and implement it this way just to see it working and then when your code is available implement it that way. It will give us the opportunity to compare but my suspicion is that the larger the dataset the faster your approach will be.... Would it be possible to ping me when your code is available?
