Brian,

Just one comment about your code. Statements like this:

IFT_eb = IIf( condition ,1,0);

are redundant if condition is already boolean and is equivalent
to writing
IFT_eb = condition; // NO IIF at all required.

So writing 
IFT_eb = IIf(varIFTBuy1,1,0);

makes no sense and wastes additional processing time.

So maybe you should take a look at your codes and 
rewrite them to save LOTS of wasted CPU time.

Best regards,
