Tracy,

Try

* Create sorting column first: Date + Time + File name
FOR i=1 TO ALEN(laDummy,1)
	laDummy[i,5] = DTOS(laDummy[i,3]) + laDummy[i,4] + laDummy[i,1]
ENDFOR
ASORT(laDummy,5,-1, 1)
browarr(@laDummy)

>If I create an array of files matching the following skeleton:

>

>=ADIR(laDummy,tivansdir+"\POLDATA.*")
>

>and the resulting array contains 3 files like so:
>

>ladummy[1,1] "POLDATA.001"
>ladummy[1,2] 8860
>ladummy[1,3] {02/12/2004}
>ladummy[1,4] "10:57:40"
>ladummy[1,5] ".A..."
>ladummy[2,1] "POLDATA.AL3"
>ladummy[2,2] 1008889
>ladummy[2,3] {01/15/2004}
>ladummy[2,4] " 9:09:56"
>ladummy[2,5] ".A..."
>ladummy[3,1] "POLDATA.002"
>ladummy[3,2] 8854
>ladummy[3,3] {02/12/2004}
>ladummy[3,4] "11:10:56"
>ladummy[3,5] ".A..."
>

>Now I want to sort the array (or create a new array) listing the results by datetime with the most recent file date first (or by reverse order). How would I do that? I am having no luck today with the ASORT() command...
