That hit the nail right on the head. That was the same thing I was going to suggest, Martin. I think people tend to forget that MySQL has the ability to handle a lot of stuff inside its own engine. The only problem is the potential performance degradation --- if it's an issue, translating that to PHP (which is the language in which Jason is doing his code) isn't a problem. In any case, your answer is the one I would consider correct for the OP's question. -- </Daniel P.
