Daniel,

It's quite inconvenient to read this long code, so better just send me your class. Anyway, I see, that you use Value_Assign to check for lastkey()=27.
I better like David's idea. Anyway, my team workers haven't responded yet, so I can not proceed (for my regret, I could not touch our class libraries to make enhancements).

BTW, I have a habit, if I take something from UT (or other sources), I add a description with author name indication.
