Has anyone come up with a method to do recursions, when the number

Well, sure -- most recursive algorithms are that way. What
specific problem did you have in mind?
By way of example.
Say I have an SQLSelect cursor pointing to a selection of records
from a table. The data has been sorted.
THIS selection has two fields in it. I want to build a contextual
menu on the fly. The first field is the primary menu item. Any data
in the second field is to be used to make a submenu of the primary
menu item.
However, the next time I call this method, the cursor may have three
fields. Any information in the third field would be a submenu of the
items in the second field.
The time after that, there could be five fields in the cursor. Any
information in the fourth and fifth fields would be submenu items of
the level above that field.
Do you savvy?
Regards,
Chuck
