I'll then add a COMMIT TRANSACTION and a ROLLBACK TRANSACTION at the end and comment them out... then when the update runs, it's in a transaction... if things go wrong, I select ROLLBACK TRANSACTION and run it... if things are ok,... I can run a couple of quicjk queries to check the data and if it's good COMMIT TRANSACTION

Ah, gotcha. Sounds good. I'll do that then.
Thanks, TG.

Re: Searching SQL Server Management Studio 2008
If you wish to edit data visually in a grid, try out Toad For SQL Server (freeware).
Click this link and look at the panel on the left where it says "Freeware" under "Downloads".
You do need admin privileges to install this tool.
Everything that has a computer in will fail. Everything in your life, from a watch to a car to, you know, a radio, to an iPhone, it will fail if it has a computer in it. They should kill the people who made those things.- 'Woz'
