2nd sort key
Hi,
I was trying to sort a file with one sort key in the first field and trying to sort again based on the 2nd field. After the sort command , the first sorted file will look like this: 1 apple OH 2 pear OH 3 pear IL 4 apple FL 5 pear FL 6 apple MI I'd like to have it sort on the 2nd field base on this result. Like in excell using sort by column A and then sort by column B thing. Is there a way to do it? THAX! Last edited by whatisthis; 10-19-2004 at 03:27 PM.
