If I understand correctly, I see a problem with HOrderCol.

If the vertical header consists of, for example, a series of
event names, and it should be sorted  by event date, then
the requirement of HOrderCol being strictly numeric is
problematic,  in a way that the previous proposal was not, isn't it?
