Perl: Sorting on Multiple Fields

[lagerplease]

I have a delimited data file which I need to sort on more than one field. I am fairly au fait with Perl but just can't figure out how to do this. Is there a modification to the standard 'sort' function which can be used or do I have to write my own segment of code to do this?

You'll have to write your own sort subrtn to do it, but it's not terribly difficult. There's several threads in the perl forum about how to do it. Check there. Tracy Dryden

Meddle not in the affairs of dragons,
For you are crunchy, and good with mustard.

Thanks for the replys. I'm now sorted (no pun intended!).
