I need some guidence in the right direction or some code to write a routine in TURBO C to alpha sort a large file. We are talking over 7 megs so an in memory sort will not cut it. I have done block and merge sorts in basic (cb86) but they start to choke after 32000 records. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS Wizard Systems | UUCP: uunet!wa3wbu!compnect!johncore P.O.
