hi Gustav, Arthur Gustave, soory its not part of humor :)) It's totally not SQL, Access, VB related; that why is aid "really really OT" I think it could be solved with a batch file. I have to do yet another report daily, and the divisions have to be sorted in specific order. Company's software prints everything thats in a specific folder in one setting, then a human (usually me or secreatary) has to arrange them in order (which is always the same) I was wandering if those files (lets assume they are in a text format) can be sorted through batch file that would be run daily. > Hi Oleg > >> I mean it should be the same way every day, but the order is not >> alphabetical - like >> Loretta01 >> Ginger01 >> Masha01 >> Natasha01 >> LaurenO1 >> Anna01 >> Patricia01 > >> Its always the same group of 51 files, exsept on the next day it will >> be Loretta02 instead of Loretta01, and this way until o5 then it >> becomes 01 again.
