New Post: Crazy Question...

I am looking to do what I will refer to as collision detection within a list. The goal here is to look at identical submissions based on several fields. Right now I am duplicating these fields in another list to do the collision detection but was wondering, instead of duplicating these items has anyone tried to use getlistitems on the same list? Another words, run the getlistitems within itself?

I wanted to ask this first before attempting to try it so I am not wasting my time, I see no reason why it won't work.

Regards,
Bob
