Sort array within array

Sort array within array
Fri, 01 Feb 2008 17:19:46 -050
Hi,
In the web application I'm doing, I need to sort an array that is inside another
array. I know how to sort a simple array with arrayname.sort(row to sort,rows to
be sorted) but I don't know how to do it with the array that is inside. The row
I need to sort in arrayname[X,Y][S,25] is the 25. Any idea? 
Thank you.

Horacio,

For arrayname[X,Y][S,25] you can sort:

Situation A
-----------
arrayname.sort( ) // as you said


Situation B
-----------
// if x is an array, you can do this
x = arrayname[X,Y][S,25]
x.sort( )


Situation C
-----------
// If you have arrayname[X,Y] with the X,Y being the correct

arrayname[X,Y].sort( )

// or

x = arrayname[X,Y]
x.sort( )

Hi Geoff, 

Now it is working. I did: 

arreglo_p16[C,3].sort(25)

where C,3 is the element in the main array that contains another array that is
sorted on the column 25. 

Thanks again,

Horacio
