This got bounced by majordomo ecause it started with the word "List". Here
it is again.

 List,

What is the term for whether a sort algorithm retains original record order
notwithstanding the sort keys (this is a computer science or math question,
I guess.)

Does SORT/iX have this attribute, and if so, how do I ensure it is honored?

thanks,

Dave Darnell
