>Thank you for your help. But (just so that I can learn) if I used parameter 1, would ASORT(aInputFile,1), still sort on the first column? I am just trying to justify to myself that maybe using parameter 5 was just a type and not early sign of losing my mind *g*.

Yes '1' would work too. For 2D arrays, the second parameter is the column to sort on as long as it's less or equal the # of columns in the array. Otherwise it'll be the column to sort on plus the row to start sorting on.
