Re: explain plan, can you explain this?

Agreed, and I feel a little better that I didn't miss an "easy" one :).

Since you opened the thread once more, I should add that I received a very good link off-list from a fellow named Stano Vnuk. This is an article that hits the nail on the head and also adds one or two more points that weren't discussed so far. Thanks, Stano!

Dan, it's not that easy to understand what it's going on in this case - I simply had already investigated a similar issue some time ago, hence my mind was ready and receptive ;) - and I made good use of the very good and complete information you provided.

It's not a trivial problem by the way - the specifications are simple, but designing a good solution is not. And those are exactly the  characteristics
of the kind of problems I find interesting :).
