Hi Peter, you also might want to check your reverse algorithm on 7.x.x
in my testing Jacque's initial post with little tweaks is as fast as your code and faster on 7.x.x (tested on 7.0.2 rc2) In my testing it took only 60% of the time compared to yours on 7.x.x Of course Alex Tweedly's ingenious inverse code leaves everything in the dust, except on 7.x.x. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- on mouseUp put field 1 into tData put the milliseconds into t get reverseText (tData) put the milliseconds - t into field "fRes" put it into field 1 end mouseUp local sNum function reverseText @pList put the number of lines in pList into sNum sort lines of pList numeric by reverseSort(each) return pList end reverseText private function reverseSort subtract 1 from sNum return sNum end reverseSort -------------------------------------------------------- private and @ help when the line count is high.
