Hi all,

Is there anyway that I can SORT a RECORD in a COBOL program (without using a
FILE).

I have a working storage record BUFFER-DATA of 160 bytes which occurs 1000
times as an array. I have my key values as Account (first 12 char) and
Invoice (next 10 Char). I am reading my data from database through DBGET,
processing it and moving it into buffer. This data is not sorted. I would
like to sort it based on Account and then on Invoice.

How do I sort this BUFFER-DATA ? Any idea ?

Thanks
