Still avoiding thinking too much... Given this list (a ref-number followed by a dot-separated date):
bg2334 12.21.09 bg9788 1.10.02 bg6554 11.30.11 bg8902 6.6.04 bg4021 2.29.12 bg1210 1.2.02 bg3008 12.3.09 bg5526 5.29.04 what sort-command combo would re-order it ascending by the date to become: bg1210 1.2.02 bg9788 1.10.02 bg5526 5.29.04 bg8902 6.6.04 bg3008 12.3.09 bg2334 12.21.09 bg6554 11.30.11 bg4021 2.29.12 Note that the ref-number and the date are space-separated, and I'm using "." instead of the english date's "/". Also, the date form is "month[1-12, no leading zero], day[1-31], year [00- 09, leading zero]. I'll be experimenting on my own to hit on the magic combination, but in the meantime I thought I'd post a plea since someone is very likely to reply a solution sooner than I can guess one up. Thank you. -- Nicolas Cueto _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
