Thanks Irene,
I tried that... It did not work.. it just made everything a subclass of what
ever class I choose. Did that work for you?
The problem is that I have over 2000 classes each of which gets a new
subclass....so I cannot afford the food it would take to do that manually
for each one.
BTW: My example was contrived for simplicity and confidentiality. Imagine
that I have 1000 different "blood sugers" that are inspec or out of spec and
I want each to get into the correct subclass..

I really think that the issue arises because of the amount of info I add to
TBC. The more that one puts in, the worse the program works.
Maybe I will test this theory.


Thanks for all of your help.
Best,
Leonard
