Instead of a TRANS with various conditions, call a subroutine that has all the 
tests you need.

hmmm. might work. I'll have to try it just to see, but I'll
most likely go with switching field orders, since I'd rather
not do a double TRANS, in case the file I'm scanning gets
a lot bigger, then processing time will be significant.

Thanks
