Hi Tony If you look at the BamView website: http://bamview.sourceforge.net/
Under the 'Generating a BAM' tab there are examples there. This command should sort the BAM for you: samtools sort file.bam file.sort.bam This command will produce the index (.bai) file: samtools index file.sort.bam The index file needs to be in the same directory as the BAM file and you do need to be running Artemis with Java 1.6.
