I'd appreciate some help with sorting binary data files. Can this 
be done with the VMS SORT utility? The problem there seems to be the
requirement of position and size qualifier values when specifying
the key field. A "binary" qualifier is mentioned, but I'm not
sure how it is used.

Thanks,

Barry Kirzner
