I have an array defined as

dcl-ds Location qualified dim(50)
Item char(15);
House char(3);
Location char(7);
Quantity packed(10:3);
Consumed packed(10:3);
End-ds

I load the array & element 1 through 10 contains data, viewed using RDi debug.
Then I do a
Sorta Location %Fields(Item:House:Location);

Looking at the array after the sort, element 1-10 is blank but element 50-40 is now populated.

Is this how the Sorta is designed to work?

I have looked at samples posted elsewhere & they indicate that element 1-10 would contain my data after the sort.
