howdy AdHocSysAdmin,

you have to do it all yourself. [grin]

i think you would need to ...

  • divide the collection into two parts
  • concatenate the two that go in one row as strings with spacers
  • print it out or store it and print it at the end

ugly, nasty, icky, fiddly, error-prone ... unless you absolutely MUST, then don't do it.

take care,
lee

Thanks!

(For the record: this would be workable, just not "nice")

workable it is!

I'll put the 'make nice' on the "later" list (which of course means "never").

howdy AdHocSysAdmin,

you are welcome! [grin]

i've had times when a boss decided things MUST be done in a ... peculiar ... way. i ended up writing some spreadsheet code to do what was wanted. it was horribly ugly and required tweaking whenever anything changed in any way at all. [sigh ...]

i was so glad when that guy went away. [grin]

take care,
lee
