Type Processing Code
Description used to alter the normal sort sequence of characters.

Used to sort an attribute in a sequence specified by the item called "seq" in the "messages" file (or "errmsg" file in R83). This is only used on an attribute defined as a sort key, thus, this code must be applied as a correlative (attribute 8). Not available for use in FlashBASIC.

The "seq" item must be manually added to the "messages" file using the following suggested format for the item:

seq   (item-id)
001 !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABC
DEFGHIJKLMN OPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcde
fghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
