No, it is not a trivial thing. I've seen the algorithm, have read and reread how it works, and how it iterates is what really throws me. First, I'm not a statistician (one biz stat class many many years ago), but I'm assuming that somehow as the algo is run there is a measurement of fit that decreases as the classes are divided up and when that fit value reaches a threshold, the algorithm exits. I've seen several versions of the algorithm and implementing them is beyond my beginnnig pl/sql programming skills. Neil
