Does anyone have a function that will sort 6 Lotto numbers low to high.

Example: From this 21 32 36 01 38 05 to this 01 05 21 32 36 38

I recall a function in BASIC which done this, it included the SWAP command which Clarion 6.1 does not have and I can not seem to find an alternative in Clarion?

Guess what I am looking for is a Clarion 'Bubble Sort'?

Thank you fellow Clarion users.
 
If its of any help to others I have found a solution (code below).
Sure the code is very basic but it works and could be a basis to improve on.

SortPIC Routine !For 6 Lotto numbers

LOC:SortToDo=TRUE
LOC:Temp = 0

LOOP

IF LottoNumber[1] > LottoNumber[2]
LOC:SortToDo = TRUE
LOC:Temp = LottoNumber[2]
LottoNumber[2] = LottoNumber[1]
LottoNumber[1] = LOC:Temp
END

IF LottoNumber[2] > LottoNumber[3]
LOC:SortToDo = TRUE
LOC:Temp = LottoNumber[3]
LottoNumber[3] = LottoNumber[2]
LottoNumber[2] = LOC:Temp
END

IF LottoNumber[3] > LottoNumber[4]
LOC:SortToDo = TRUE
LOC:Temp = LottoNumber[4]
LottoNumber[4] = LottoNumber[3]
LottoNumber[3] = LOC:Temp

LOC:SortToDo = TRUE
LOC:Temp = LottoNumber[5]
LottoNumber[5] = LottoNumber[4]
LottoNumber[4] = LOC:Temp

LOC:SortToDo = TRUE
LOC:Temp = LottoNumber[6]
LottoNumber[6] = LottoNumber[5]
LottoNumber[5] = LOC:Temp
END

IF LottoNumber[1] < LottoNumber[2] AND LottoNumber[2] < LottoNumber[3] AND LottoNumber[3] < LottoNumber[4] |
AND LottoNumber[4] < LottoNumber[5] AND LottoNumber[5] < LottoNumber[6] THEN LOC:SortToDo=FALSE.
