You could try sort items of field "myField” by char 2 to 3 of each text ascending but you would have to add a space before the first item. Bob S On Sep 24, 2014, at 01:19 , la...@significantplanet.org wrote: sort items of field "myField" text ascending ___

Sounds like you've sorted it Larry :) For others wondering what the cause was, it was likely that the spaces in each item were confusing things - so if they are removed prior to the sort it all works fine (they can be put back in after...) on mouseUp replace space with empty in fld fldTest
