Hello again,
There's obviously something I don't understand about sorting. I
typed this into the message box.
set useSystemDate to true
set the itemDelimiter to tab
put \
1 & tab & "01/10/1999 5:54 AM" & return & \
2 & tab & "30/09/1999 9:16 PM" & return & \
3 & tab & "15/08/1999 8:23 PM" into d
sort lines of d dateTime by second item in each
put d
And I get this back.
2 30/09/1999 9:16 PM
3 15/08/1999 8:23 PM
1 01/10/1999 5:54 AM
Revolution isn't treating the dates as strings; otherwise the order
would be 1, 3, and 2, which it is when I omit dateTime from the
direction of the sort. I checked to make sure that my system date
format is dd/mm/yyyy and that the time uses a twelve-hour clock.
Any thoughts?
Gregory
