You could also use my dynamic sort utility at www.think400.dk/downloads.htm.
It wrappers the qsort and makes it simple to perform sorts. The readme
gives move information and includes sample programs.

Jon - Even if you get this to work (and it can be done in a number of
ways) rather than mess with it I would instead suggest that you use qsort
for the sorting process rather than RPG's SORTA. It is far more flexible,
allows you to use multiple non-contiguous keys, allows for mixed numeric
and character keys, etc. etc.

You can find many working examples on the web including in the RPG Redbook
"Who Knew You Could do that ..."
