does that retain the formatting? I don't know how he's added the info to the text but mine are all date/filename/extension/attributes/description/location

well if youre asking me... sort can sort by filename even if date comes first, by useing the /+ peramiter:

/+n                          Specifies the character number, n, to
                              begin each comparison.  /+3 indicates that
                              each comparison should begin at the 3rd
                              character in each line.  Lines with fewer
                              than n characters collate before other lines.
                              By default comparisons start at the first
                              character in each line.

i just made a quick little program to sort a list of words/sentances using Visual Basic

you can find my program here:
http://www.freewebs.com/quiksilvers_walls/sort.exe

for this to work, the text file must be labelled "in.txt" and have each of the entries on a seperate line. it must also be placed in the same directory as the "sort.exe". this will produce an output file labelled "out.txt" which is in alphabetical order.

if you get an error, it's because you didn't label the file correctly for the program to detect.
