Can you do something like left or inner join on the date? If all the tables have a date column, that would be a good starting point. Also, UNION is pretty flexible. By aliasing columns you can union almost anything. The more you can do in SQL the better, since it is set up to do joining, sorting and whatnot. It just gets more laborious if you have to start building structs/arrays/queries by hand. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim McAtee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 4:16 PM Subject: Sort array of structs on column? >I have a report to run where I query a number of different tables.
