Greetings!
I'm using SORTA to sort a DS arrary containing both positive and negative numbers (the field is 11P 2). The resulting data appears to ignore the sign, that is the items are returned in this order:
58,656.27-
32,714.07-
26,773.81
15,668.28
2,765.95-
.00
(Note that this is not all of the data, just a representative subset.)
What is it that SORTA does that causes this? Is it sorting on hex values rather than numeric? Or is there something going on that I'm not aware of? What other options do I have to sort in numeric sequence?
Thanks,
Steve
