It is pretty simple actually, and here is an example. Let's say one list you have last names, in another, their telephone numbers in the same order. You need to keep two separate lists, but you would like both sorted to the same order, according to the last names. In my program, building the lists does not occur in the final desired order, so a final sort of both lists is required. The catch is getting the phone numbers to sort according to the same order as the names. --this works-- put lastNames into tempNames split tempNames by cr sort lines of phNums by tempNames[lineoffset(each,phNums)] sort lastNames --now both are in the same order or in my case, items on a single line in both variables: split tempNames by comma sort items of phNums by tempNames [itemoffset(each,phNums)] Not that you wanted to know, but the variables in my Rev app are actually two double-nested arrays that need to be synchronized so that when they become Flash variables, the user interface performs smoothly and accurately. "Sort Items" works perfectly.
