Another idea might be to save it as seconds and then convert it to a date when the user needs to see the date. That way you would save the time converting all the dates in each sort. JB > On Jul 10, 2020, at 9:02 PM, Tom Glod via use-livecode > wrote: > > Yeah it will add some overhead, but

Yeah it will add some overhead, but it will work to do what you need. I'm sorry I'm not fluent in the syntax of sort . but I knew you can specify a date I never needed to use it I always store the seconds or milliseconds. Yup.Might as well convert to seconds and then sort numeric asce

If you are having problems with the date itself not being sorted properly you might be able to accomplish it by first converting the date to seconds and then sort the data. It will take more time but might work. JB > On Jul 10, 2020, at 3:06 PM, David V Glasgow via use-livecode > wrote: > >

Hi Tom, That’s what I thought I was doing. From the dictionary… The dateTime keyword recognizes all LiveCode's date and time formats and sorts them in time order, rather than alphabetical or numeric order. Cheers, David G > On 10 Jul 2020, at 11:24 pm, Tom Glod via use-livecode > wrote: >

Hi David, you should be able to do this by specifying the sort-type. look up 'sort container' in the dictionary. On Fri, Jul 10, 2020 at 6:07 PM David V Glasgow via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Livecodeistas, > > I am working with text files consisting of many thousands

Livecodeistas, I am working with text files consisting of many thousands of lines, most of which are in the format URL & Tab & Date - but a few don’t have a date. So they look like this ... http://1.lw6.blah/b7f3bd9e6b4d728a0f6d5883ed3a5ce/5326d47f?ss=152 17/03/2014 9:55 http://1.lw6.zdo
