I have shown him where they are and how   to do a DIR/SIN=TODAY command to get todays files.   However he was complaining that there was no   equivalent on VMS to ls -lrt to list all files oldest first.   I have looked at PIPE DIR *.TRC |SORT commands but   you need a key and it is not to obvious how to do it easily.   Does anybody know an easy way of doing it.   

  I have never needed to do it because I have always   find the date parameter to DIR to be sufficient but it would be nice to help a   user out for a change !!!
