RE: Sorting Question

I did go this approach and just added a field to the DB to store 192.168.1.1 as 192168001001 and just use a logical keyed by that for loading the subfile.



Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

I just want to display it in the sequence they want to see it in, so
that .12 comes before .119.

Then probably the easiest way would be to store it in the database as
four 3-digit zoned fields, and key on them.

Your original query seemed to imply that the data was already sitting in
a database file.
