Often you've got a 2D array like this (this might not be the best example ie
you might say "use a structure instead" ;-), but it's just what comes to
mind):
[1] ProductID | Name | Price | Some other info..
[2] ProductID | Name | Price | Some other info..
[3] ProductID | Name | Price | Some other info..
[4] ProductID | Name | Price | Some other info..
and it *would* be nice to be able to sort the array by the first element in
each element. I struggled to get it to do that for ages before I realised it
just wasn't possible ;-)
BTW, CFWACK's coverage of arrays and structures is a bit scant. Are there
any good web pages that have plenty of examples of what's possible?
