Sort by letter

[Ida McClure]

I was wondering how to go about creating a series of sorting functions for sorting a set of results from a search.

I have links labelled A to Z and a person should be able to click on one of the letter links to sort by that letter. For example, click on the letter Z, and the results beginning with Z come first then all other results in normal alphabetical order.

Can anyone help please?

this sorting scheme is not common and is at the leaset an application by itself. Normally you can sort and use the gotoFLdIndex to slide to the record beginning with the selected letter.
