Many thanks for this.

I think there is much of a muchness in all of these fine programs.  I guess=
 we all want to be able to say we have invented the best program but this i=
s more an elite group of similar programs from what I can see.

I am claiming that the only restriction to my version of this sort program =
type is the data type is discrete.

Many thanks for your contibution to my education of sort programs.
