Robert,
If your numbers are always all digits as you show here, go to your table and
change the data type to Integer if your numbers will always be between -32000
and +32000 or to Long if outside this range. Then in your query you simply
include the number field in the query and set the sort to ascending.

Thanx, I changed the datatype to int. Did not like that (I suspect there
were some records that caused it some troubles). From your suggestion
regarding datatypes I then started to experiment and found the decimal data
type worked.

Robert, would it be possible to use a Double instead of a Decimal size
number field?
Access is not capable of sorting the Decimal field reliably. For details,

Hello,
I am at wit's end with an array sorting problem. I have a
simple table-sorting function which must, at times, sort on columns that

spaces to be put in the first slots of the array. IE 6 does this. But
Firefox 0.9.1 doesn't, and I don't know why.
I have not been able to reproduce it in very simple form (which
is itself a puzzle). But example code is...

Hi
I am running a PHP program that connects to an Access 2000 database

Is it possible to sort the contents of $results? I wish to use a
regex-based sort order that you can't do in Access 2000* SQL with
"ORDER BY".

Hi,
I am working on a program that simulates one of the elements of ATM.
The simulation stores events which occurs every some milliseconds for a

My problem appears when subjecting the program to heavy load, that is,
