Hello, with Sort[{a,f,e,s}] I can sort a Vector (a List). How can I sort a Matrix?? In the Help I can find the Information: Sort[{33,76,2,6,17},#1>#2&] For a Matrix I think it should work like this: Sort[{33,76,2,6,17},#1[[#5,#3]]>#2[[#4,#3]]&] where #3 is the column to be sorted for, and #5 and #4 are the different Vectors in the Matrix. Can somebody help me?? Yours sincerely, Peter Klamser
