I have two databases I want to keep sorted by date. One in ascending order and one in descending order.
I've searched the dbman posts and found a lot of info on sorting by date. I didn't bookmark any particular post (I probably should have referenced one of them here) However, after reading many posts, I cannot tell if the sorting that is being done is the sorting of the actual database or the sorting of the output that is generated by dbman.
I need to keep the actual databases sorted because I have several external perl scripts that read from the dbman databases and they expect the data to already be sorted.
Can anyone refer me to a previous post that concerns the sorting of the database itself?
