Hi David,
In order to avoid confusion, is it possible to express in words the 
specific search you have in mind ?
Then we could (perhaps ?) write a new code for this.
And, please, specify hammer,(white hammer, black hammer, inverted 
hammer etc.)
A gif could also explain the type of hammer you want.
Since Greece is half a day far from Australia, let us try to 
communicate through this list.
I will not agree to replace Cond1, because Cond11 is depended on 
Cond1 and Cond111 depended on Cond11 etc.
It is better to try something from the beginning.
Best Regards
Dimitris Tsokakis
