friendliness feature it breaks the traditional alphanumeric sort order.
I wish there is an option for the sort order.</font></p>

that it in turn points to, not only would you have found out that there
is, but you would have even found out exactly where it is too, as
documented in the MSKB article that is pointed to by Michael Kaplan.</p>
