SEPARATOR
The arrayintegersort statement sorts all the numeric elements of a text array in proper numeric order.
Parameters
This statement has three parameters:
inputarray – the original text array containing numeric values.
outputarray – a copy of the original array sorted numerically.
separator – the separator character.
Description
The ArrayIntergerSort statement sorts a text array that contains numeric values. See the arraynumericsort( function for details about the process of numerically sorting an array.

- listchoices( -- builds a text array containing a list of all the values stored in a specified field.
- lookupall( -- builds a text array containing one item for every record in the target database where the data in the keyField matches the keyData. Each item in the text array contains the value extracted from the dataField for that record. If the data field is a numeric or date field, it is converted to text using the default patterns for that field.

History
| 10.0 | Updated | Carried over from Panorama 6.0, however, this is now a native function instead of being implemented as a custom statement. It's much faster and more robust than it was in Panorama 6.0. In addition, the arrayintegersort statement is now identical to the arraynumericsort statement. |
