Thanks Again In Advance. With Best Regards.

Your SQL just ROCKS, JUST ROCKS..... AWESOME KAROL, JUST AWESOME..... I am going to next level of my code where I need to find out that the deepest leaf, if it is not used in certain table then I would like to delete it. For time being one more questions (Please expect more in upcoming time on this issue :) ), is it possible to get the records for one entire leaf and it dependent leafs and then another leaf and its dependent and so on via your SQL ? Result order like: Vishal Group Vishal Group1 Vishal Group1.1 Vishal Group1.1.1 Vishal Group2 Vishal Group2.1 Vishal Group2.1.1 Vishal Group3 Vishal Group4 Vishal Group4.1 With Best Regards.
