Thanks for the quick reply. I want to trim the quotes in my answer
here, but I can't quite figure what to leave out and still make sense.

However, I do see your point. And the Column name might as well stay
as "Correspondent." Dealing with a little slight ambiguity is good
exercise for the brain. :)

I knew that. I should have qualified my statement by saying "Marck's
technical note set me to thinking ..."

I'm learning. :)

:lightbulb: The entire TB! runs on rules, not just the filters that users make.
