Hi Mark,

Is this what you want?

Ethan,

The trick is I need a list of how the values were re-ordered (The index numbers).  

I found "Find Similar Member" which almost works.  The problem now is that because I have duplicate values I'm getting duplicate indexes instead of a unique index for each value.  I've started to use a series of sequences to try to increase the value (Index numbers) but I'm getting stuck again.  Seems like there has to be an easier way.

Thanks for the help.

Is this any better? I multiplied each number by a unique factor to also render it unique. Since you're working with points this should be OK.
