if you have not gotten a reply yet:

Make the declaration:

a, b, temp : type -- whatever you type is

begin
   ---your code here
   if  a > b then
      temp =: a;
      a := b; 
      b := temp;
   end if;
... -- more code here
end;

--this will work but a procedure would probably be better.

good luck
