Thread Subject: vectorization problem part II

I've another problem that seems so simple but i can't figure it out. Well i can, but not in a fast way. I still have this matrix for example:

5 1
5 3
5 2
6 2.5
6 2.1
6 2.9
7 8
7 9
7 1

this matrix is ordered based on the first row. For all similar values in this first row i also want to order the values in de second row. So then you get this:

5 1
5 2
5 3
6 2.1
6 2.5
6 2.9
7 1
7 8
7 9

Looks so simple, i tried that with a combination of accumarray and sortrows..that didn't work though. Any smart people here that can help me? No more questions after this one..well maybe 1 :)

-NV-

>> a=[5 1
5 3
5 2
6 2.5
6 2.1
6 2.9
7 8
7 9
7 1];

>> sortrows(a)

ans =

    5.0000 1.0000
    5.0000 2.0000
    5.0000 3.0000
    6.0000 2.1000
    6.0000 2.5000
    6.0000 2.9000
    7.0000 1.0000
    7.0000 8.0000
    7.0000 9.0000

Seems working fine to me

Ok, in fact that did work. I just made my example a bit too simple. But after rearranging some collumns i figured it out.

The problem was more that the collumns i want to sort are not the first two collumns, but like the 4th en 11 th collumn. I know rearranged the collumns but i bet it's possible in another way as well.

Well, you should read more carefully the help of sortrows, especially the second input.
