>>Hi all,
>>
>>In one of my applications I copy fields (mainly names & addresses) from a table into an array. I'd then like to sort the array by surname (field name is S_NAME) - does any know whether I can do this without re-indexing the table by S_NAME first? I can't re-index the table becasue it's a shared table....

I was sure that I said that! ;-)

Does Guinness qualify as Dark Beer? If so, more power to your elbow!
