Build a structure (associative array) where you have
the value you are trying to sort (array[x][5]) as the keyname
and the array[x] as the keyvalue
***** untested code ahead *******
<cfset myStruct = StructNew()>
<cfloop from=1 to=ArrayLen(myarray) index=idx>
<cfset result = StructInsert(myStruct, array[idx][5], array[idx])>
</cfloop>
<!--- Sort the array keynames ---->
<cfset KeyNames = StructKeyArray(myStruct)>
<cfset SortedKeys = ArraySort(KeyNames, "textnocase", "desc")> <!--- or
what ever sort you want --->
<cfset MySortedArray = ArrayNew(1)>
<cfloop from=1 to=arraylen(SortedKeys) index=idx>
<cfset MySortedArray[idx] = StructFind(myStruct,SortedKeys[idx])>
</cfloop>
or something like that , let me know how you get on ....
