Sorting 2D Arrays

[Forresterian]

I am converting a program that measures distances in 3D shapes into matlab and am having problems with the sort command organising my arrays. I am using 2D arrays, both containing numbers. I would like to organise the columns by the numerical values in the second row. So far when I try the sort command it sorts the row without swapping the columns around. Does anyone know a way round this problem, thanks in advance!

Well, then maybe you need to transpose the array first?

Sounds like a simple problem with a simple answer. However, without some example data, it's hard to give an answer. Post a small array and the desired result and you'll have many takers of this LHF (low-hanging fruit).
