Howard;
	unfortunately the calc field CANNOT be stored / indexed; I kinda 
figured (after some trial and error) that the storing / indexing might 
be a problem in the find.
	But I tried to loop though the records and set a regular field to the 
calc field, and that action bowmbed too.  Can you not use a calc field 
at all in a server side script?
