You're welcome, though "instant reply" was simply a matter of luck (time zone of my current location, lunch break). Craig, of course, never sleeps.

If you don't mind all the errors that are generated when you send rows that already exist in the table, yes.

Make sure that you don't send these rows.

There isn't one. Stop thinking like a server job developer. Start envisaging virtual Data Sets, and learn how an index to a virtual Data Set is built "on the fly" on a reference input link to a Lookup stage, except when that link is serviced by a Lookup File Set or when sparse lookup is specified.
