Thanks Ben,

I suspected I was doing it wrong.

Either re-visit what you want to do in your code – you quite likely can
write it so that it's not dependent on the order of items – or you use a
different type.

So, what is it you're actually needing to do, and why is the order of
items relevant?

I am processing a set of data in row(parrellel) format that needs to be tossed into EAV (serialised) format. The database it is goign into is a long existing system which cant be changed.

I am reading the ROW in, placing it in a container and then later writing that row out in the same order it got loaded in on. THis order creates the EAV rows in their correct order. If the data goes out in a different order to when it came in then the EAV rows are written in the incorrect order and the data goes bad.
