LOL. Look, I worked for the same company for 32-1/2 years before retiring...
how do you think I could have managed that without using some creative
coding techniques across the years.<vbg>

Okay, look... the first code I posted was in response to Randy saying it
couldn't be done in one-line of code. Now, as anyone who has followed my
posting history on these newsgroups knows, that was a challenge I just
couldn't refuse.<g> The second piece of code (which I issued a
correction/clarification for by the way) was an extension built on top of
the first piece of code. As to maintainability or even readability... the OP
asked for a one-line piece of code for a problem that had a very simple
multi-line solution... with a request like that, readability and
maintainability were apparently not high on his list of concerns.... so I
didn't let it bother me either.<bg>
