Geraint,
Thank you for the clarification. I didn't pick that up.

I didn't see _all_ the indices until just now.

Now I've found it I'll be using it.
I couldn't extract the values for each row in a for loop, so I did it
sequentially. It's expedient but I know there _is_ a way to set up the index
and loop to do it in a couple of lines of code. Later; when there's time.
Your help has been extremely valuable and appreciated. Thank you.
