Overview
--------
This program enables a sort of a database created with the internal
Data program (it will not work with OPL Database files unless these
are made up of all String fields). It works by reading the data into
memory and sorting the fields with a bubble sort. There are three
version of the sort contained within the program - dependent on size
the program will sort on Fields 1, 2 and 3. The program now does a
case insensitive sort (because of requests from other users).

Limitiations
------------
If the data is less than 500 records then the sort occurs using the
first three fields.

If the record number is greater than 499 and less than 1300 then the
first two fields are used.

If the record number is greater than 1300 and less than 2500 then the
first field only is used.

Any file with records greater than 2499 are sorted using the sort
program given in the Manual (slightly tweaked by me).

The sort only uses the first eight characters of any field.

I don't believe there are any bugs in the program but who can tell?? If
you find one let me know and I'll correct it (probably)!

Apologies for the brief text but I wrote it in a hurry. You can
