It's easy to consume the police report (presumably into a map) and then do the processing on the other data source. It looks like all the difficulty comes in because you're thinking of the conceptual "processing is delayed for the report" as something that has to be implemented literally. -- Graydon Saunders | graydonish@xxxxxxxxx ^fs oferiode, pisses swa mfg. -- Deor ("That passed, so may this.")
