Thanks Dave, that is what I needed.

As to why, imagine a few hundred tables that must be build where the
code to build differs by only a few parameters AND a single function
that is unique to the table. One could make a general build routine
with a VERY LONG select or simply pass the function by name and run it
as you suggest. Coming from an environment where pointers and
references are generally available, I prefer the Run solution.

Thanks again.
