    SanthoshKunder yes I saw that - I've pretty much search this to death in the last 24hours. That particular solution would require me to right a formula on a row by row basis I think. Plus the thread got a bit in depth for me, involved a lot of trial an error for the contributors and didn't look like the issue was resolved.. It's not the succinct answer I'm looking for .
