Hi Charles,

Thanks.

The reason I dont have condition when selecting is it's faster than having.
Because my aim is to go through every row, find values of few columns and
append them to a summary table. Then delete the row from the table. So find
the rows on the fly is fine for me.

I have tried to reduce the number of rows to be processed, even I process 1
row in production machine, it takes 24 hours to finish. 

Regards,
Haiming
