Hi Xavier,

Hi everyone,

Im trying to sort a list of dates - nothing hard right?

  set itemdelimiter to tab
   sort lines of fld "dateIndex" datetime descending by item 1 of each

The dates are in item 1 - no prob.
The dates are tested with month before or after... (all days are set to 1)


But what I get is this! (or backwards!) - never mind the 2nd, 3rd
columns...

01/10/1932      173310  2
01/10/1908      173310  2
01/09/1908      9523814 2
01/06/1908      419840  1
01/01/2004      2415830 11
01/05/2003      6293645 115
01/01/2000      5664075122      42593
01/12/1999      6476478340      39207
01/12/1998      3215445 1245

Try this one: ... set the centurycutoff to "00" sort lines of fld "dateIndex" datetime descending by item 1 of each ...

Works here for me:

01/06/1908     xyz...
01/09/1908
01/10/1908
01/10/1932
01/12/1998
01/12/1999
01/01/2000
01/05/2003
01/01/2004

Is this a bug?

I am afraid this is a feature (of some sort...) ;-)

I tested this in MC first and thought this was an old but
but after testing it in RR 2.5 and get the same wacky result!

cheers
Xavier
