All,

Many thanks for your thoughts on the merging of columns. The tr method would have 
killed all the delimiters as a few people noted. The || method in SQL was the winner, 
although the final table this has to be done to (4 million records) should kill the 
system for a while!!!!! Must make sure I've got enough disk space to do it all as 
well. Maybe doing it a section at a time would be in order.

Thanks to all,
Gary MacMinn
