Very nice article. We have a routine here that I wrote in my younger and more idealistic days as a recursive subroutine for this very reason - spanning a tree. When it was processing 100-200 records at a time, it wasn't a problem. But now that it is processing 20,000 records at a time (and that will grow greatly over the next year or so), it is slow as a dog and kills the system. We know we need to rewrite the routine to get rid of recursion but hadn't wanted to tackle that task due to the need for "ugly logic". Your solution in the article is fairly elegant and should allow the change without TOO much code rewriting. - jmh -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
