I based the example on the very small set of input records you showed me and I'm not sure I really understood your explanation of what you wanted. I did not receive your private e-mail. Please send it to me again using this e-mail address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] so I can take a look at it. Hopefully, I'll be able to understand what you want better from the new data. I'm sending this note to you as well as to the list, so hopefully you can just reply to resend me the note.
