I'm a lazy programmer :) - I thought that creating 25 columns was hard
hand labor... but then, once you do it, you do have it solved. Today's
bunch of messages (in other threads too) seems to collect nice info on
this subject, with a little more programmable approach than this.
Nevertheless, this approach may be the only one usable in some
situations. BTW, have you created the 25 columns by hand, or could you
cut&paste?
