Well, I can read in the lists, sort them independently, and print them out,
but I can't match the age list with the salary list.
I don't know how to match the age list up with the salary list without
making a third SLL. Is a third SLL ok?
If not, how can I output the right info.  Should this be done in the sort
function? Print function? another function?

Chris, I am at the same point you are.  I tried to get help from Sanjay
during his office hours, but he wasn't there.  If you get any ideas please
post.

I figured this out about about midnight last night after much
frustration.

First, NO, it's not okay to have a third list.
I have two print functions, one for the unsorted lists and another for
the sorted lists.  The unsorted prints has 4 columns, printing the lists
separately as Name, Age, Name Salary.  Chuck said this was okay.  The
sorted print tests to see if the names are the same (strcmp()) before
printing.  If it is, it prints all fields, if it's not, it prints only
the name greater in the alphabet and it's corresponding age/salary
field.   It then increments only the pointer of the node that it
printed.

Hope this helps.
