You can do the same thing with one 8 byte character field, but then there's the overhead of converting portions of it to an integer.
Hello George
Re: BitAnd() limitation? Thread #

932840 has found the solution. i have added to it to allow for bits over 52 to work by converting literly to a binary string and manually testing each substring.
of course if i get to that length it will be a bit slower <s>
Thank you for your help!
