Hi all,
As far as I am aware, Classic DCAL offers no way to compare strings (strcomp tests for equality only, but I want to know which is greater so that I can sort in alphabetic order).
In order to sort strings I have had to resort to some rather complex code. Although I am '100%' sure that DCAL does not offer a simple way to do it, I thought I would check with your combined wisdoms just in case my 100% assuredness is misguided and there is in fact a simple way to do it.
Thanks,
David H.
