I have found that U2 works the fastest in UniBasic via

      clearselect ALL
        execute "SELECT FILE BY @ID"

  loop...
       read R.Item from F.FILE, This.Item
          This.Item = R.Item<23>

       begin case
             case This.Item = My.Item  ;  null
             case 1                    ;  go Next.Item
       end   case

       My.Array<-1> = This.Sample

  Next.Item:
  next

--Bill

Subject: [U2] OK...Is there a way....UV


I want to sort a file by @ID and only take the first two items...

SELECT FILE BY @ID SAMPLE 2
doesn't work, it first takes the sample of 2, then sorts it.

SELECT FILE BY @ID
SELECT FILE SAMPLE 2
works, but takes two lines

How can I phrase my SELECT so it will sort first, then sample later, instead
  of sample first, sort later?

I'm running UV.
