Bernie,

Although I have used Emmitt's technique, I would encourage you to follow 
Larry's advice
and experiment with Variable List Views. They have fast become my favorite 
control.
You can now do the following important items (probably more that I will 
forget);
display images
sort
recall sort order
remember location in list

<<

If I bring up a form with a region that has several columns and then I want 
to re-sort them by any of those columns, how might I accomplish this?
After re-sorting, I need to capture the row (Part Number of the row) that 
the user selects.
>>

Does this form have any entry or edit functionality in the region, or is it 
just for the purpose of selection?  If the later, lose the region and make a 
variable form that uses a Variable Lookup Listview to display the records.  
The control variable attached to the list view will tell you which record 
was selected, and you get column-click sorting for free, courtesy of R:Base.

<<
Or if I use the Browse 
command, is there a way for the user to click on a row so that I can get a 
return value to know which row they want?
>>

At list in DOS, if I remember correctly, there used to be a # variable that 
would remember the data from the last column you were in.
