stuff. That's probably the easiest and most logical. The only other
way would be to somehow extract that number and put it into some kind of
database or some kind of structure that would know that the type being
stored is an int and then you could order it correctly, but because
filenames are strings, CF evaluates them as such.

I see, that is the only way to do it?

You need to make the numbers -01, -02 etc. File systems order
alphabetically, not numerically. If you can't get the files in a
different format, you may want to run some kind of script to rename
everything to take the number between - and . And convert it to a 3
digit number.

Subject: Ordering File Names
Hi All,
I need to display file names from my directory on a page. The file
names are in the following format 1014133248-1.pdf, 1014133248-2.pdf,
1014133248-3.pdf etc
I need to display them in order, this works fine for files up to -9
but
after that I end up with
1014133248-1.pdf
1014133248-11.pdf
1014133248-12.pdf
I am using CFDIRECTORY Then a Query of the output. Is there a way to
order them properly?
Thanks
Mike
