Use "numeric" as the (optional) sorttype in the sort command - see dictionary.

For example,

sort lines of field thisField descending numeric by item x of each

Hi,
Having a bit of trouble sorting score numbers after importing a
tab-delimited text file. Using dgText for import into a table, sorting the
score column shows:
0
9
10
100
11

Is there a way to change certain columns to be sorted as number data instead
of text?

Thx,
Tom Bodine
