John,
There's no need to use a repeat loop:
on mouseUp
put fld 1 into myList
set the itemDel to colon
sort lines of myList numeric by item 2 of each
sort lines of myList numeric by item 1 of each
put myList into fld 2
end mouseUp

Best regards,

Thanks John,
I'm not trying to be "cheeky" but I am frustrated. Sorry Alex.
John, what you propose may work - haven't tried it yet.
However, that still does not explain why WITHOUT the 0 in front of it,
9:14 was listed before 11:35 in my ascending sort. And just FYI, those
are minutes and seconds I'm using and not hours and minutes.
My point is that it seems to me that the dateTime sort does not work
properly. What you proposed is a workaround because dateTime does NOT
work properly, right?
