I am beginning to think that you are a troll, as all your comments are
haughty and disparaging, while you either take no trouble to follow, 
or are incapable of following, my explanations.

In the event that this is not the case, please try to understand my 
reply to Skip, and then suggest a way that will perform better
in my use case, out of your vast arsenal of better, quicker, 
more reliable, portable and comprehensible ways of doing it.
