Again, just so that you don't think that I haven't attempted to find the answers to my questions before I ask them, I have searched. I've read the LC Dictionary, looked at the LC sample, read my LC book, looked on Stackoverflow, and some other places for a simple example of "sort".
As an aside: Did you know that there are 3037 messages that mention "sort" and a few less that mention "sorting" in the forum. Only a true numbers person would draw attention to that. That would NOT be me!
--------------------------------------
The real question in case you don't want to waste your time on the stuff above:
I am trying to sort a list of items. I've used both the "normal" field object and the list scrolling list field object to try this out. I've found a lot of examples for various iterations of this code:
This is from the LC dictionary:
Code: Select all
sort field "Output"
I've placed the text in the field's "Contents" section. Maybe that is an "it" in LC? Just wrote it into the Contents and hit return after each word.
So far, I have had no success in getting the text strings to sort when I run the program. There are a few of examples of sorting using variables/arrays, but I just wanted to keep it simple.
What am I doing wrong? Brain fog number 1,999,999. Please save me from 2,000,000.
