That's what I am doing as a work-around while the identifiers are known just to contain numbers (in a string attribute). I just cast the strings to integers, and sort in the conventional way. That will break if and when the attribute contains a value that can't be cast to an integer. I suppose I could extend that: instead of casting to an integer, pad the strings with '0's. In any case, I just wondered if there was a more WO way to do it, but I suspect I misunderstood how EOSortOrderings worked, as I described in my previous post. -- Paul. http://logicsquad.net/ _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
