Hi I tried using this but it sorted it in a order like this
Code:
>string 1
>string 100
....
>string 109
>string10
>string110
...
>string 119
>string11

.

it rearranged in a different order.
I didnt quite understand.Did i do it wrong?
Since I am not a programmmer couldnt understand the code so much.
But is there a easier way to sort sequences inside a file?
Thanks a lot thoughSmilie
