[Jim <Random@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks ... but not quite i "fixed" it to do what i was looking for by 
doing the below ... i am sure its a sin of some kind ... but it really

Cheers,
Jim

«CreateCounter("ProcEntry_ContainerCounter")»	
«FOREACH ... AS a»
	«CounterIncrement("ProcEntry_ContainerCounter")»
«ENDFOREACH»

«IF IsCounterGreaterThan("ProcEntry_ContainerCounter","0")=="true" »
...
