_ArraySort() - sorting by second char

[nitekram]

_ArraySort() does not work for this type of sort - lets say I want to bypass the first char or number in the data and then sort the array based on the second or third, ect. Does anyone know how to do this or does someone know of another function that will allow me to chose which char to sort by?

IE.

array contains numbers 123,223,224,512 - sorting by second char

I want it to come out 512,123,223,224

Maybe like this

#include <array.au3>
Dim $arr1[4] = [123,223,224,512]
_arraysort($arr1)
Local $arr2[UBound($arr1)]
for $n = 0 to Ubound($arr1) - 1
    $str = String($arr1[$n])
    $arr2[$n] = stringright($str,StringLen($str) - 1) & StringLeft($str,1)
Next
_ArraySort($arr2)
for $n = 0 to Ubound($arr1) - 1 
    $arr1[$n] = Number(StringRight($arr2[$n],1) & stringLeft($arr2[$n],StringLen($arr2[$n]) - 1) ) 
Next

_ArrayDisplay($arr1)

_ArrayDisplay($arr1)

Never would have thought of doing it that way, nor would I have been able to do it once I thought about it. Good work and thanks for your help!!!
