Thanks, both of you. It is pretty musch as I expected, but hoped wasn't the

The alternative was to create a pretty heavy pattern from the value, but 
guess I will put the effort into updating the database and program to add 
some additional fields (actually a separate table) for creating the indexing 
strings.
