Tim,

System lib does not currently have an option to sort a database.  It does have
an option to sort the entries in a list object, and an array you populate with
one call per entry (and then extract with one call per entry).

The latter is much like using NSB's regular array support, except you determine
the number of elements at runtime plus have the option to sort the array.
