Amreus,

A Quick and simple answer is one of the many reason roman numerals are not 
used very often today.  is there size is not directly related to the size 
of the number and they cant be sorted.

I suggest a macro to convert roman numerals to decimal and store this in a 
field and use that field to sort.

Regards
Tony
