Hi Mike
Thanks so much for your help. I dropped your formula
into an exploration and it performed as I was hoping.
It's what I was trying to do but wasn't quite able to
put together properly. But you've given me some new
ideas about how to build a formula, which is also what
I was looking for. So again, thanks for your kind
assistance. It is much appreciated.
Best wishes,
Terry
