I have a database that contains a bunch of unorganized info. I want to create a new file to get it better organized. I would like to know how to easily transfer the info back and forth. I would like to be able to enter an employee name into the new file and have it pick up all of the info in the record from the original DB. I should note that there are no value lists in the original. I noticed that when I create a value list based on fields from other files it gives me a nice alphabetized list. I wonder if there is a way to get that info out into a list of its own

If you sort your original file by any field or fields, then import it into a new file, the records in the new file will be arranged in that same order. But, why not just use the original file and sort it as necessary? Or, am I missing something?
