Your supposition is quite unfounded; the logic of the script is quite clear. > A1 B1 > A1 B2 > A1 B3 > A1 B4 > A1 B5 ... but if you separate the values with spaces, as you have done here, then the file does not meet your own criteria. As Christopher has remarked, while asking you to send your file, the script works with all valid files, and does the work not in eight seconds (!!) but in the twinkling of an eye. If anybody can point out a real flaw in my script, I shall be happy to correct it. If you will send me your file, I shall be glad to explain why you are having the problem.
