I am treating this sort program more as 'tool' for specific needs now rathe= r than a general sort program following the analysis given me by the previo= us reader. In answer to your question, Q is limited only by the computer capacity to p= rovide memory as far as I can see.=20 I have written some new "Theoretically Unbreakable" cryptography that is we= ll proven and I was lookin at this as an enhancement which it still is of c= ourse but that is as far as it goes. It may not compete (it might if it co= mes to that) with other sort programs when it is extended to the broader fi= eld of sorting all data types. See "Skew Line Encryptions - The Eventual Cipher" on=20 http://www.adacrypt.com/introduction.html=20 This is downloadable and comes with the original compiler (older but perfec= tly ok)=20 Thanks for your interest. Austin.
