Check out HyperExternals, from Boojum Software, Inc. This includes a total of three sets of XCMDs which perform a variety of functions. One of those functions happens to be a container sort. It is both quick and flexible. HyperExternals is available through TechAlliance, APDA and Heizer. -- ===================================================================== Ed Anson, Calcomp Display Products Division, Hudson NH 03051 (603) 885-8712, anson@elrond.CalComp.COM
