So if Telitab_1$ contains the dataset:

2 
"MODELS" 
{ 
0 
-4 "1" "2" "3" "4" 
"MODMAT$" "wood" "foam" "wood" "plywood" 
"LPP" 112.30 133.80 98.60 145.00 
"B" 17.80 21.50 16.42 22.40 
"T" 7.65 9.20 6.70 9.40 
} 
"PROJECTS" 
{ 
1 
"CLIENT$" "YardX" 
}

To explain the data: 
you have two objects, MODELS and PROJECTS presented as list values in Telitab_1$ containing TeLiTabs themselfs (with several parameters). 
LPP is part of the MODELS object (TeLiTab).

When you unfold Telitab_1$ dataset on parameter "LPP", you get:

1 
"PROJECTS" 
{ 
1 
"CLIENT$" "YardX" 
} 
0 
-4 "1" "2" "3" "4" 
"MODMAT$" "wood" "foam" "wood" "plywood" 
"LPP" 112.30 133.80 98.60 145.00 
"B" 17.80 21.50 16.42 22.40 
"T" 7.65 9.20 6.70 9.40

You see that PROJECT still is a separate object (and presented as a list value in Telitab_1$). All other data (which was part of the MODELS object) now is part of Telitab_1$ and thus a table in the TeLiTab.

...

SORT#(Telitab_1$, "LPP")) 

returns:

1 
"PROJECTS" 
{ 
1 
"CLIENT$" "YardX" 
} 
-4 "1" "2" "3" "4" 
"MODMAT$" "wood" "wood" "foam" "plywood" 
"LPP" 98.60 112.30 133.80 145.00 
"B" 16.42 17.80 21.50 22.40 
"T" 6.70 7.65 9.20 9.40

SORT#(Telitab_1$, "LPP", 1)

 returns:

1 
"PROJECTS" 
{ 
1 
"CLIENT$" "YardX" 
} 
-4 "1" "2" "3" "4" 
"MODMAT$" "plywood" "foam" "wood" "wood" 
"LPP" 145.00 133.80 112.30 98.60 
"B" 22.40 21.50 17.80 16.42 
"T" 9.40 9.20 7.65 6.70

If SortPar$ contains a parameter which does not occurr in the Telitab$ set, an error message is returned:

"No valid Sort parameter: "ParName" given in SORT# function."
