So what you're really arguing in favour of is wrapping it up in a
function, which is what I've done. But the question is whether it's
worth creating a for loop to run through a1 to a5 rather than simply
calling each by name.

No, they're simple if it's wrapped up in a function. Whether or not
a1 to a5 get generated by a for loop I've still got b, c, d, e, f (etc)
to deal with. NB I'm using these as symbols - in reality they are the
field names from a database, so no getting smart and suggesting that I
can generate b to f automagically. OTOH I could stick the field names
in an array and step through the array. This might be worth doing.

I know this is Usenet but you don't *have* to be rude and abrasive.
