in thread Sort files by date in the file name.

Hello friend, thanks for the tip. It has helped me .. but I own many other files as for example: 981139804_ABCDEF12345678765463565E_28062016172508.TXT 981139804_ABCDEF12345678765463565E_28062016192508.TXT 981139804_ABCDEF12345678765463565E_28062016112508.TXT 981139804_ABCDEF12345678765463565E_28062016102508.TXT 981139804_ABCDEF12345678765463565E_28062017102508.TXT 971305332_XXXXXX12345678765463565E_28062011102508.TXT 971305332_AAAAAAAA12345678765463565E_28062011102508.TXT 971305332_CCCC12345678765463565E_28062011102508.TXT 971305332_CCCC12345678765463565E_28062020102508.TXT And when that occurs, it is only returned to a number, that is, I needed to return ordering the first column and the last.

    Your OP data has the date in YYYYMMDD format which is simple to sort. The data here is in DDMMYYYY format which is trickier. Which is correct and, more importantly, is the data consistent?

    Cheers,
