Tom, that may well be.  As I mentioned, you and David have got me to look at
alterantive ways to do this and I'm going to some other approaches.  In
particular, the current version was developed when the grouping requirement
was added after the fact for a previously developed template.  Doing away
with the original template, and restructuring everything (perhaps with the
structure you suggest, but possibly with a completely different attack) is
quite possibly the way to go.

Frayed knot... I'm still looking at why not.
