Re: Message Base Question

Hi,
Is there a way to get the message base to sort messages that come into an area in date format?
When reading I see messages that are not always in date order.
i suspect this is because of delays in messages getting distributed via qwk or ftn.
Would this be a message reader function onr an index procedure inside the database?
That'd be a message reader function, but likely pretty frustrating for users. The date/time stamps on messages aren't very accurate (especially considering different timezones). I don't think the results would be good.
