Hey Johann,

        I was just playing with the WOO file having never used it before, so 
this is what I have...

{
    "WebObjects Release" = "WebObjects 5.0"; 
    encoding = "UTF-8"; 
    variables = {
        displayGroup1 = {
            class = WODisplayGroup; 
            dataSource = {
                class = EODatabaseDataSource; 
                editingContext = "session.defaultEditingContext"; 
                fetchSpecification = {
                    class = EOFetchSpecification; 
                    entityName = Student; 
                    isDeep = YES; 
                    prefetchingRelationshipKeyPaths = (); 
                }; 
            }; 
            fetchesOnLoad = YES; 
            formatForLikeQualifier = "*...@*"; 
            numberOfObjectsPerBatch = 7; 
            selectsFirstObjectAfterFetch = NO; 
            sortOrdering = (
                {
                    class = EOSortOrdering; 
                    key = firstName; 
                    selectorName = "compareAscending:"; 
                }
            ); 
        }; 
    }; 
}

I'm just fetching all of the Student entities and want to sort them by their 
first name.  The selector name for the sortOrdering makes no sense as it's 
obviously a hold over from the cocoa days.  I know there's still NSSelector in 
the core frameworks, but since no such method exists on String this won't work. 
 All the data comes back, it's just not sorted.

Thanks.
