I don't get why this doesn't work. There are several other value expression examples in the Ledger documentation that don't work, either. I have a debug environment that will allow me to step through examples like this, and I was hoping that I would be able to help out with this kind of thing, but I confess that I could not follow the process that converts the sort options into executable actions. I will have to study the code quite a bit more to be of assistance -- sorry. Tim Crews -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
