I do pretty much the same thing with leading underscores, but I don't find that they're ignored. Instead I find them sorted at the end, rather than the beginning. That is, after Z rather than before 0 (zero) as they're sorted in Windows Explorer. I suspect this is just a function of the collating order of the underlying dbms. -- JJZolx _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
