Does Your LL Have A Problem With...

One of the bigger hurdles is the fact that not all link lists have the same categories or even define like-named categories in the same way. Plus, many have split major categories into soft and hard, ie - Ebony and Ebony Hardcore. It becomes a situation where there are so many options that need to be scripted to ensure the correct recip table is built, that it becomes a somewhat user-unfriendly script.

I'm starting to see it your way UW. At first, I thought it would be much more simpler. It does seem like more hassle than what it would be worth. If I do go ahead with this project, I will try to incorporate all these things you all mentioned, but as UW said, it might not be very user friendly at that point. Needs much more thought and planning I guess. Thanks everyone!
