you are trying to solve the wrong problem!
the help you got from the people responding you, is exactly what you need!
your tool is obviously pure shit => replace it or try to live without one!
this may seem like a lot of work (and propably is!), but believe me:
with a db-design like yours, your current problem will be only a minor
one compared to those expecting you!
don't be shortsighted; your problem is "tricky", but would be trivial
with better design => really complex problems will not be tricky but
unsolvable; thats for sure!
