So heres the deal...
I work for a company in which numbers are dropping. The owners created
a game where calling potential clients racks up points for crap like
basketball ticekts and such. The owners called upon me to develop a
system where users could enter information to list user name, data
stamp it, and then add form data such as the person they called and if
it was a cold call or not. All that was pretty easy. Oh, by the by, I
had never programmed anything prior to this. I was strictly html. So I
made the game... Users enter data, gets dropped into a csv in our
_private folder. Then I made it so that the data can be read in html
format, simple fso... Well not for me, but I got it to work... So now,
the owner wants this list to be sortable by the last name of the
agent....
This is where I have the problem.
You see, I have a boss, a programmer. He is in Canada where as I am in
California. He is far to busy to assist me, and his teaching methods
consist of telling me one key word, and leaving me to google the hell
out of it. So his key work was bubble sort.
Now I have been playing with this for,,, well over a week now (a few
days past deadline) and I cannot get it to work properly.
I can get bubble sort to work on an array of pre-defined data...
My problem( which I have taken forever to get to, sorry) is that I need
to get it to look at the whole csv, find out where the eof is, then
read up from there...
I have no idea how to do this, and no jedi like mentor to ask
assistance. I ask for help and either get harped at or a "lol"... Its
getting old...
Here is the code for the game

All advice will be appreciated.
Thanks very much,
