Special Requirements: None. ACSORT sorts data files which have fixed-length records and fixed-length fields. The output file will be a list of record numbers (an index to the data file in sorted order). The index itself can be read as either a sequential file or a random file with a record length of 12. The data file being sorted may be of any reasonable size. You may sort data of any type commonly used in any Microsoft language. Other sorts may have some difficulties with Microsoft random files, even appending unwanted control characters or additional records or pointers to the file output. ACSORT will not. ACSORT will not sort sequential data files, it is only intended for use with true random files. For that reason, it will NOT sort dBase data files. EDFIX2 is a program that will read, edit, write, and transfer random-access files up to two billion bytes, with each record being as much as 2048 bytes long. EDFIX2 will work on any file, even if the file is not truly a random-access file. EDFIX2 can manipulate dBase data files--except that EDFIX2 records will probably not match up with dBase records. You may also use EDFIX2 on spreadsheet files and files created by various other software packages. QB4CREF is a cross-reference program for Quick BASIC programs. It will cross-reference even interpreted BASIC (GWBASIC) programs PC-SIG 1030D East Duane Avenue Sunnyvale Ca. 94086 (408) 730-9291 (c) Copyright 1989 PC-SIG, Inc.
