Re: Num Sort Descending

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 56060
interpreted = N
texte = This makes the third time (by my guess) with questions regarding code that should do this or should do that without being specific as to what your code actually is. In this case, you don't even provide your usual "example" (rather then the real code). It is meaningless, fruitful and non-productive for anyone to go to some web page and click a link only to see what you already see or see what you can describe is words. If you want help from this group, then post your actual code (not your made up example) and then maybe someone can help you. Prediction: A half dozen helpful souls will now chime in with their guess as to what Justin's problem is even though he does not provide his code. Justin will provide the code. People will point out a couple of obvious errors. Justin will admit that those errors were introduced when he typed the code into an e-mail message and that that was not really the real code, just an illustration. John Peacock will (rightfully) chastise Justin for not posting the real code. Someone will recommend a work-around. Justin will adopt the work around. And the whole process will be repeated with a different problem that "should" work in 2 to 3 days. Total message count on the list: 15-20 messages to come up with a solution. Alternative: Justin posts a detailed explanation of his problem along with an actual cut and paste of his code (changing the database name and path in case he's afraid of hackers) and someone who is awake this early in the morning will give him the solution. Total message count from problem description to solution: 2.
