Thanks for the further explanation.

One small difference in this approach is that in the general case I
have to supply the name of the last column whereas the other just
starts at the beginning and goes until it's done. No big deal and
possibly an advantage as I could search a subset of the data on the
row, i.e. supply both the start and stop columns, for instance
C61:C120. This could be valuable as each column generally represents 1
minute further into the experiment, so that range would look at the
second hour only.

Cheers,
