I tried to do what you're doing and it ended up being something of a 
nightmare to maintain, particularly if you have multiple vendors of the 
same product (one vendor provides one size or color, another vendor 
provides another size or color).  Rather than try to keep up with it in 
that manner, I had to create multiple parts with the style, color, and 
size making up the part number.  I formatted it in this manner: style id 
+ size id + color id.

In the end, this turned out to be the easier solution for client because 
inventory wound up being easier to view/manage and the external scripts 
I'm building to tie the e-commerce side of the customers application to 
LSMB became much simpler.

But that's my situation.
