I saw Dave's posts...good tips. I would suggest using a cursor/view instead, using an additional field for "display rank" and then having that default to the Primary Key generated (so that they're naturally showing in order added--assuming you're using integer keys or something else where you can tell what's later by the order of the key). Then make your changes, changing that that display rank field value (not the PK!). Show your data in DisplayRank order. hth, --Michael _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
