Sort array multistage?

[igorm]

Hi,

I'm using very good function _Array2DSortFree(), to sort my arrays. But it seems that this function does not work on every computer. It returns error that $ARRAY isn't array. But I'm sure that with my arrays is everything OK, because I use _arraydisplay to check. Anyone know what might be the problem and how can I solve it? Also, if anyone know some other function to sort array, please point me to right direction. What I need is to sort numerical and multistage. Example:

Unsorted:

Col1 Col2

a 10

b 8

c 7

d 1

e 3

Sorted:

Col1 Col2

d 1

e 3

c 7

b 8

e 10

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers

Why not just _ArraySort()?

The _Array2DSortFree() function uses SQLite, and the topic specifically mentions interference from other SQLite operations the script might be engaged in. Where you have it failing, are you using SQLite?

I don't use _array sort because it cant sort multistage. Also, I'm having problems even to sort numerically with it. If I have elements: 1, 2, 10, and I when I sort it with _ArraySort, I'll get 1, 10, 2. And, no I don't use anywhere SQLite. But I found what cause the problem. It is IsArray. Array2DSortFree() use it, but IsArray returns on some machines 0, and I don't know why. I used _arraydisplay just before IsArray check, and array is showed but then IsArray return 0. This is really strange. Is there any other way to check if $ARRAY is array?

EDIT: It seem that problem is not with IsArray. Something other gives 1 as return to that function.

I found where it fails but I don't know why. It fail on _SQLite_Startup. Anyone know what could be the reason? Something in the system? Or anyone can suggest other solution. I'm really bad with sorting and I don't know how to do it myself.
