Just because Harness understands it doesn't mean it's right. Some people
don't use Harness and think that using | to symbolize "or" is a good thing.
Like me. I think
-> [Portfolio | Cluster | Market | Region]
Is more readable than
--> [Portfolio]: an INTEGER that is only passed in if cluster, market, or
region is not
--> [Cluster]: an INTEGER that is only passed in if portfolio, market, or
region is not
--> [Market]: an INTEGER that is only passed in if cluster, portfolio, or
region is not
--> [Region]: an INTEGER that is only passed in if cluster, market, or
portfolio is not
Jeff, maybe you missed the point of the original post was that the four
variables were mutually exclusive.
