All comparisons, including those used for the original sorting, were done using the same comparison method/locale. And the sort order and search order need to be same, otherwise any algorithms that rely on the transitive nature of comparisons (eg: quicksort, binary search, etc) will fail. ~Martin _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
