Hi K'Chebe,


FrameMaker does an ASCII sort instead of a numeric sort. You can force a sort 
order in a marker entry by adding the desired sort in square brackets. For 
example, you would use



5 [005]

7 [007]

9 [009]

10 [010]

11 [011]

15 [015]



to get the correct sort order.



If you have a lot of markers, I can write a script that will automate the entry 
of the sort keys. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. 
Thank you very much.

I have an index of markers that I am having an issue with.  I would have 
thought that sort order, by default , would allow my numbers to sort in the 
following fashion; 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 15. Instead it is doing 10, 11, 15, 5, 7 
and 9.  To me it appears that framemaker is instead looking at the fist digits. 
 Does  anyone know how to change the index sorting to give me the correct 
results?
