Description
The ASORT() function sorts all the character elements in the specified <array>. The sort can start at element <expN1> and finish at element <expN2>. The ASORT() function will stop sorting when it finds a non-character element. If <expN3> is specified as a non-zero value, then the array is sorted in reverse order.
Example
use accounts declare names[reccount(),1] copy to array names fields company asort(names)
Products
Recital Server, Recital
