Yes sir. The order will never change...er well, it shouldn't. I wrote the script that this pulls from though so I should be able to doc it pretty well.

So, for your example then, let me make sure I got it straight what you are doing.

You are joining each element in $_ to @SORTME (don't quite follow the purpose of the two carriage returns after your join though. Then you are taking $_ in your while loop and extracting AMAFILE, STATUS, and DATE CREATED and their values into $1..$6 and pushing them into the array @array, right? I noticed something different about this array though. Is this a multi-dim array?
