RE: Data Structures with Structures

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gosh, I'm flattered.  It's not like I invented it or anything. <g> I think
it's been around as long as RPGIV.  I read about it in an article in what
was then called News400.  It's the sorting feature I really love.  When you
have a bunch of parallel arrays you can group them into one and then sort on
any of the sub arrays and have the "row" relationship stay intact.  I don't
know any other language that can do that that easily.
