I'm using this script for a while now ad the listbox is pretty full. Now i want it to sort out the data on alphabetical order. I've tried a view things with $sorttok but it doesn't seem to work. the data is al in text format. Could someone help me on this one? The txt file is called namelist.txt tnx stimpy *************************** To chat, or not to chat. That's the question
