Text Name Sorter... Help!

[hlstriker]

I was wondering if anyone has made something that organized names in a text editor.

Say if there were these names.....
Andrew
Josh
Nick
Zack
Andrew
Nick
Nick
Josh
Andrew
.....It would put them in order, like all the Andrews in one spot, then all the Nicks, etc...

So when it got done organizing it would look something like this.....
Andrew
Andrew
Andrew
Josh
Josh
Nick
Nick
Nick
Zack

If someone made or will make a program to do this, please let me know!

Thanks !

put them in Excel and sort??
or are u talking an array?
or a text file?

I have code that sorts arrays...

Private Sub QuickSort(C() As String, ByVal First As Long, ByVal Last As Long)
    Dim Low As Long, High As Long
    Dim MidValue As String
    
    Low = First
    High = Last
    MidValue = C((First + Last) \ 2)
    
    Do
    While C(Low) < MidValue
    Low = Low + 1
    Wend
    
    While C(High) > MidValue
    High = High - 1
    Wend
    
    If Low <= High Then
        Swap C(Low), C(High)
        Low = Low + 1
        High = High - 1
    End If
Loop While Low <= High
 
If First < High Then QuickSort C, First, High
If Low < Last Then QuickSort C, Low, Last
End Sub
 
Private Sub Swap(ByRef A As String, ByRef B As String)
    Dim T As String
    
    T = A
    A = B
    B = T
End Sub

I'm talking about a text file, I just need the text from say notepad organized alphabetically.
