AMT LION	Developer	Code Logic	328565 In LION, the LIST function did not support SORT or INDEXOF when a list contained a class. This was because LION couldn't differentiate between instances. Now when 'IMPLEMENTS ICOMPARER' is added after the class definition, the LIST function can use SORT(), INDEXOF (search instance) or INDEXOF (search instance, StartAt).

This differs from the usual 1-based indexes used in COBOL, which might cause confusion. The editor has been changed to display fields with a 1-based index to better match COBOL conventions.
