Both are sharware. I could attempt to forward them to you, but they would have to be in a mail message (rather large), and I would need to dig them up from the archives... your best bet is to look on compuserve or genie, if not there, check out the archives on the nets. If all that fails, contact me directly and I will send them to you. B.Bumgarner an alternate way to sort a field is to presort it; as the field is built, put each line in in order using hypertalk.. This works especially well if the contents of the field change over time.
