XYplorer Beta Club
I'm running 2003 server and the natural numeric sort order appears to be broken, eg I'm getting 2.10 before 2.2 and 2.3.
Everything's fine in WE. Don't know if this has happened for a while or only just now - it's late/early.
This happen to anyone else?

2.2.txt
2.3.txt
2.10.txt
2.15.txt
Although I would have found this okay too (reading the first dot as decimal sep):
2.10.txt
2.15.txt
2.2.txt
2.3.txt

Strange, it's fine at work (XP). Maybe it's just a Server 2003 thing, that would be a real fag :/
I see your point about treating it as a decimal place however, I hadn't thought of that. But isn't that how old Windows treats it anyway?

Yes. With decimal fractions abc- and numeric sorting are identical because all significant positions are written even if they are zero, IOW the leading zeroes are there.lukescammell wrote:I see your point about treating it as a decimal place however, I hadn't thought of that.
