Set $DB_BTREE->{compare} before tieing the hash. However, accessing the tied hash in the compare routine leads to deep recursion (FETCH method uses the compare routine to navigate the tree).

    danger,
    While this sounded like a good thing, it doesn't provide near enough functionality for the purpose of my module.
  • Ability to change the sort routine on the fly
  • Ability to sort on anything to include values

    Thanks anyway - I learned something new which is always a good thing

    Cheers - L~R
