Thanks, I'll try this on the weekend and report back. I ended up taking the 
easy way out (benoit's suggestion) to create a numerical column. When I'm 
saving the data I do a Try val (The string) and if it converts to numerical I 
save that, otherwise insert a null value). This works fine, however I will 
try yours.
