I'm spending way too much time in SQL.  I knew DESC mean descending.

It's all POV-related, isn't it.

Which is usually what we all saw and thought it meant in 99.9999999% of the database schemas we all have worked with. LOL.

For a while, I thought it meant "DESCRIPTION".

Now I know what ‘DESC’ stood for.

The following message was sent from an external e-mail address. Be cautious when clicking on links, opening attachments or providing sensitive information.

 

________________________________

Ascending is the default, you can specify Descending after each field as shown in Raymonds example:

 

FOR RFILE IN MPEXFILESET

     SORT  (SECTORS:'DESC',(TODAY-ACCDATE):'DESC',INTCODE,RHT(FILE,2):2)

 

It is also in the manual that Paul posted yesterday on page 201.

Now all it needs is an Ascending vs. Descending sort option.

Here is one from my system.

FILE PIGLF.LISTF.VESOFT

FOR RFILE IN MPEXFILESET

     SORT  (SECTORS:'DESC',(TODAY-ACCDATE):'DESC',INTCODE,RHT(FILE,2):2)

FIRST

    BEGIN

       WRITELN  ("  FILE        GROUP       ACCOUNT       CNT",

         "     FCODE      LAST ACCESS  DAYS     ");

       WRITELN  ("=====================================",

                 "======================================");

       WRITELN  ("                   ");

    END

DO

    WRITELN (TAB(2), FILE,

Subject: MPEX LISTF Sorting

All,

Does anyone know how to get VESoft's MPEX LISTF command to sort the file

output?

In this case, I just simply want it to sort the files by their creation

date.

Thanks for any information,

John
