Sorting Files
How do you sort a file in VB. I need to sort a file like the way Unix sorts a file with the sort command or the way NT sorts by passing the function sort a file name and a column to sort.... Please tell me if there is a function in VB or a control or someone who has a function they built....Thanks
How does it work in Unix/NT, does the column 2 mean from character 2 to end of line (as the sort command looks like in Win95) or does column 2 mean that the program reads the empty lines and figures out where column2 might be... If you can tell me I can probably make a function for ya, it sounds like a easy task. ;)

Dim dbDemo as Database
Dim rsDemo as Recordset
Set dbDemo = OpenDatabase("Nwind.mdb")
Set rsDemo = dbDemo.OpenRecordSet ( _
"SELECT * FROM Employees ORDER BY LastName, FirstName", _
dbOpenDynaset, _
dbReadOnly)
Your Recordset will then appear in that order.
