Truth is that you can list founditems multiple times within the same search context without the cpu doing a re-search. Since it the CPU doesn't search over again for each set of founditems it is safe to assume that this is faster than if it were to.If we go off that assumption (and this is completely historical reengineering) I think it would have made more sense for founditems to be able to contain certain parameters such as:[founditems asSKUsort=1];-) But... Charles is right... Do another search. Chances are that is your best bet. If the search is huge (base data) and the results are small, there may be some benefit to exploring creation of a temp DB for resorting.... But likely that a 2nd search will be just fine.Alex Alex J McCombie New World Media Chief Information Officer Drawer 607 800/724.8973 Fair Haven, NY 13064 Alex@NewWorldMedia.com http://OurClients.comInterface Designer WebDNA Programmer Database Designer------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
