Will fix. ISTR there is a way of knowing if a List can be indexed efficiently. Posting code is so often humiliating, but you learn quite a bit in the process, and end up with higher quality code all over. We need to teach people to lose their fear of posting code. You notice how terrified newbies are of posting code.
