That's much clearer. Interestingly, I have used the "gap" between two dates in
precisely the manner you demonstrated but as the array was always intended to
return the next lower date I hadn't appreciated the implication when I wasn't
looking for the "gap". I must be getting old and forgetful.
Thanks again for your patience.</pre>
