(haven't been following thread - just looking at this code)
Not sure why the compiler would care, but could loDataProvider.nCount ever be 0 ? or loDataProvider ever be null?
For lnCounter = 0 to - 1 ( I think a step 1 is implied )

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
