Sort question

[Andre.Bisseret]

Bonjour Yves,

I propose this one:

put fld "fld1" into tText
replace slash with space in tText
set the itemDel to tab
sort lines of tText ascending numeric by word 1 of item 2 of each
sort lines of tText ascending numeric by word 2 of item 2 of each
replace space with slash in tText
put tText into fld "fld2" -- or fld1 as well of course

Best regards from Grenoble

André
