It works great for horizontal arrangements, like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14But the question, as I understood it, was how to produce a 3-column vertically-flowing (like reading a newspaper) arrangement: 1 6 11 2 7 12 3 8 13 4 9 14 5 10which requires that you break twice in the course of the [FoundItems] (after 3 and after 6 in this example), not every third item. By using [index]\3 instead of my [math] stuff, you end up with three items per column instead of the intended three columns: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14Unless there's something I'm missing...-Daveo--------------- Dave MacLeay --+ o----------- Digital Frontier --+ o--------------- 802.253.8612 --+ o--- dave@digitalfrontier.com --+
