Thanks Richard,

I see the mistake I made and also got an idea on how to use 
the "alert" function. 

I also see the challenges of keeping this updated manually. I came up 
with 183 potential splits. In the future, I might decide to use one 
of the data vendors that supplies clean data, but for now, it looks 
like I have a bit of work ahead of me.

Thanks
