Alphabetical sorting problem

I have an application which has a drop down loaded with some names. These names are loaded from database which are already sorted alphabetically. But if I test it in IE9, the drop down is not sorted where as it's sorted in other browsers like chrome and
firefox. Is there any way to handle this issue in IE9 ?

Problem in alphabetical sorting

Hi all
In reference to the following query posted:
Well, try this :
SQL> with tbl as
2 (select 'sap' c1 from dual union all
3 select 'sip' from dual union all
4 select '1123' from dual union all
5 select '1pouet3' from dual union all
6 select 'test' from dual union all
7 select '678' from dual union all
8 select 'test2' from dual )
9 select c1
10 from
11 (select 0 as c2, c1 as c1
12 from tbl
13 where translate(c1,'0123456789 ',' ') is not null
14 union all
15 select row_number() over (order by to_number(c1)), c1
16 from tbl
17 where translate(c1,'0123456789 ',' ') is null)
18 order by c2,c1;
C1
1pouet3
sap
sip
test
test2
678
1123
7 rows selected
I am thankful that your query worked out well....
But then I have a problem with it.
It does sort the list first alphabetically and then numerically. But the problem is, in alphabetcal sorting.It takes all the the words starting with capital letters as one set and the ones starting with small letters as a different set.So it will first alphabetically sort the capital words first, then the set of small letter words and finally the numbers. For eg:
LIST
annie
apple
Carrot
zaire
Zap
123
Yougurt
345
Ant
Break
Dark
success
After sorting it will give the list like this:(this is not what i need)
LIST
Ant
Break
Carrot
Dark
Yougurt
Zap
annie
apple
success
zaire
123
345
But I want the query to take the list of alphabetical words as one single set. I dont want it to make a differentiation between capital letters and small letters.
Also after sorting the capital and small letters in the original value should remain as such.i.e.; the data should not changed.Only the order should change.
So after performing the sort operation the list should be like:
(this is how I need)
LIST
annie
Ant
apple
Break
Carrot
Dark
success
Yougurt
zaire
Zap
123
345
Could you please suggest me a solution to my problem.
Thanking in advance......

IOS 6.x alphabetical video sorting PROBLEM

Apple,
Please fix the alphabetical sort order of tv shows within the videos application in ios 6.x.
Apparently tv shows bought from itunes store will sort by episode but manually added videos do not.
This should be a relatively simple fix considering it worked correctly in ios 5...
I don't know how you guys managed to screw it up AGAIN in ios 6...
Just thought you could include this in your 6.1.2 update which will hopefully patch the exchange bug and lockscreen passcode bypass exploit.
You might as well kill two birds with one stone, in other words, fix this stupid video sort order problem and patch your os with ONE, not multiple, OTA upda
You advertise your products as user friendly and whatnot but can't even get something as simple as logically ordering tv shows in order of episode right?
Seriously Apple, get your stuff together and fix the alphabetical sort ordering of tv shows.

Alphabetical sorting in album view broken in 3.4.0

Upon updating to Spotify 3.4.0, I noticed that alphabetical sorting of albums, by artist or title, no longer works correctly. Neither killing/restarting the app nor deleting/reinstalling it has any effect. This is on iOS 8.3. This is when sorting by artist. Boris, Brian Eno, Burial, Busta Rhymes, then Beyonce, back to Burial, Beyonce, then Beastie Boys. It's a total mess. Sorting by album title is in slightly better shape, but articles really screw it up. It takes everything that starts with "The" and sticks in in between the S's and T's. Well, almost everything: Here we've got a few stragglers stuck between T and U. None of this makes any sense and it's a real pain. Apple Music comes out tomorrow, and I'm surprised that Spotify thought it was a good idea to roll out an update with a major issue like this right before a big competitor's launch.

This was my reply. It was done quickly but I think it gets the point across.
Qte
thank you Andrea for your reply,
That's a big shame if this change was intended. To have your Albums listed in a casual order and not Alphabetically seems a huge step back for the iOS version and all of its users. It makes that menu redundant in all honesty, especially if you have over 100 albums. Why change or take away a very important part of the experience that a lot of users want?
For instance, this morning I regrettably started my 3 month trial with Apple Music to see how this experience is. As much as I didn't want to, I felt like I should give it a try, since the main part of my experience with Spotify has changed/gone.
They list the Albums exactly like Spotify used to (before the last update). So in Artist Alphabetical order, with the Albums underneath in alphabetical order too. This means I can scroll through all of "My Music" in alphabetical order without realising some artists are at the top or bottom and mixed in with others.
For me, it makes no sense at all for Spotify to change this. It now looks a mess and the "Album" section to me, and others, is now useless. I now have to filter "Artists" and select that, to then select an album I want. This is not intuitive at all. As I said, it's a step backwards.
I hope the team look at this seriously, because it could possibly put users off the experience. I for one have defended the Spotify team on forums such as Reddit, who mostly put the team down for the huge problems on the desktop version recently, saying its a step backwards for most features. I now seem a bit bewildered why the team are also doing this for the iOS version.
I think you get my point anyway. To change something so important without explanation is madness. Your team need a lot more communication with it's users, or you could be losing quite a few of them to an alternative streaming service.
I hope this feedback helps. If you require any more information please let me know.

Alphabetical sort in Music app is messed up

Good day to everyone, I hope someone will help me with my problem. As you can see on the screenshot, alphabetical sort of my music in default Music app is messed up, for example song which name starts on B can appear in the middle of songs on C. I am not sure when this problem started, but I believe it started after I updated iTunes to 11.1.1. I tried using older version to no luck. I never found this exact problem with Google, but I didnt find any. With similar problems people said that you should reset your setting and it didnt help me.

Looks like Google has a server problem in Asia:

CCM 2.0: Alphabetic sorting of product categories

Hi,
We are using CCM 2.0. I am interesting in influencing the sorting of product categories during a catalog search. We use both the hierarchy and the index search.
It seems that the product categories are sorted by the product category number. We would prefer to provide an alphabetic sorting of product category description to the employees.
Can we influence this? and if so how?
Your reply is highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Martijn
P.S. Edit Catalogs > tab Content > Radio button "Sort by" ID or Description keeps jumping back to ID as default even after saving.
Message was edited by: M. Roggeband

Hi Martijn
Unfortunately there is no simple way to influence the sorting of categories in the hierarchy search. We are focusing the same problem. Due to this problem we recently wrote an OSS-Call to SAP. They replied that this system behavior (sort by category-id) is standard and we should either modify our system or send a customer request. We are doing both. Last week I sent a customer request to SAP and soon we will try to modify the method SORT_CATEGORY_LIST in an appropriate way.
If you think SAP should solve this problem, please send a customer request to SAP too. The more requests they get the better chance we have, that they will do something.
Kind regards

Specifying alphabetic sort order for other languages.

The alphabetic sort order differs slightly for other languages then the English one. I rewrite the alphabetics in the special text flow of the Reference Page of the index file, regenerate the index file, but the result is wrong. The special Group Title characters for greek, hungarian, czech, russian etc. languages are combined among latin Group Title characters.
We work in FM 8 to create 3000 pages technical documentation in 14 languages. The output will be pdf file and help system. Our main problem now the index Group Titles sort order. Could you help me to solve this problem?
Thank you so much
Eva

Michael,
Thank you so much for your answer. It works great. I have a promlem only one letter, which is in the Czech alphabetics: "Ch". This letter would be after the "H". I have edited the sort order like this:
Symbols[\ ];Numerics[0];A;B;C;Č;D;E;F;G;H;Chch;I;J;K;L;M;N;O;P;Q;R;Ř;S;Š;T;U;Ú;V;W;X;Y;Z
<$symbols><$numerics>Aa Bb Cc *Čč* Dd Ee Ff Gg Hh Chch Ii Jj Kk Ll Mm Nn Oo Pp Qq Rr Řř Ss Šš Tt Uu Úú Vv Ww Xx Zz
The result in the generated index is, that the index entries beginning with Ch comes on below "C" and the GroupTitle "Ch" is disappearing. Take a look at the result in the generated index file, what I am talking about:

How to alphabetically sort albums and folders within a folder

Much to my dismay, I discovered that iPhoto will not alphabetically sort folders or albums that are within a folder. It will only sort folders and albums (in separate groups) that are at the "root" level beneath the ALBUMS label. I used "iPhoto Folder Import 1.0" to import multiple clip art and stock photo files which resulted in many nested folders and albums that did not stay in alphabetical order (because iPhoto often randomize them when you add them to an existing folder).
Here's how to get around the problem.
Albums: 1. Select all the albums in a folder. 2. Drag the albums to the ALBUMS label so they end up on the root level. 3. Right click on any of the selected albums and choose "Sort Albums." 4. Drag the still selected albums back into their original folder. They should retain their alphabetical order.
Folders: 1. Close all the folders that you want to alphabetize. 2. Follow steps 1-4 above with "folders" in place "albums."
I cannot understand why sorting won't work within folders. I also do not understand why we don't have the option to alphabetically interleave folders and albums. The only way to achieve this is to create folders for just one album, which seems silly.

Thank you for a quick response.
How do you suggest i resolve the issue of different data types in order to use this function? I have tried a few different ways and have whenever I adjust, it wont run through my sub VI's correctly due to being different data types.
You have to READ THE FILES. Jeff just showed you how to use a FOR loop to go through the files. You still need to open the files, read them and then process the data.
I had assumed from CSmith8's original post that the text file processing vi worked. just drop that vi into the for loop and wire the file name in!
Alternately, attach the code that processes the file and a sample file. I bet we can show you a thing or two about how to do it cleaner and faster then point you to the right learning resources so one day you can show us some new tricks.

PSE11 - alphabetical sort workarounds

Here are a few ideas for those who miss the alphabetical sort in the PSE11 organizer. In previous versions, the pictures were displayed in alphabetical order when in folder view.
Now, when you are either in 'Folders' or 'My folders' views, you can only sort by date or import batch.
When you are in an album, the choice is also date or 'custom'.
Understandably, that lacking sort order is mainly a problem for those working from scans and with a folder structure organization.
1 - When you are in 'Folders' or 'My folders' view, higlight the folder in the left panel and right click 'Reveal in explorer'. Two clicks and you can browse the thumbnails in the default alphabetical order in the Windows window. (I suppose it must be the same for Macs...)
2 - From the same right click you can choose : 'instant album'. Two clicks again and you have a new album. It's possible to sort the album manually in a sticky 'custom order'. If your photos have been just imported from a scanning session, I think the best workflow is not to name/rename your pictures before the import. It seems more logical to order the files manually in the album, then use the organizer rename function to give the pictures in your folder a common starting name + digits.
3 - In numerous cases, the 'date taken' is totally irrelevant for scanned pictures. Either you will change the date for a suitable estimate, or if date does not matter, you can try the following.
Select all files in the folder and use the organizer to give them the same date. That will use the secondary sort order of the Organizer : alphabetical. That's enough to display the pictures in a folder in alphanumerical order. Note that it will be the common ASCII sorting which is somewhat different from the Windows alphabetical order.
My guess is that this 'acknowledged' problem will only be solved in PSE12. So, in the meantime, it may good to have two click solutions to display alphabetically or to create an 'instant album'.
Also see the feedback page on this problem:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/element_organizer_do_not_sort_alphab etically?page=1

Sorry but I did a bit of misleading... I thought I was on PSE11, when I read the post that this had been fixed in PSE12 I checked - and found I'm on PSE12 already.
Oops...
In any event, just to report this, the alphabetical sort most certainly does not work properly in PSE12 - at least my copy, running on Win 7 Pro. Both are patched and as up to date as they think they need to be.
If I choose folder view (which is my normal default), I can certainly CHOOSE "by name" - no problem - but the files are most certainly NOT all sorted by name. I have a lot of pictures (I often shoot 5-10,000/year) and I would guess that 99% of them DO sort by name. The rest appear somewhat randomly in the view - often either at the beginning or the end of the sort.
If there's any pattern, it seems that all shot with my Nikon do properly sort by name, but those shot using my phone or scanned in become issues. NOT consistently, however - again MOST that I scan or shoot with the phone DO sort properly. Just a few don't, and if I examine the properties and meta tags for those that do not sort properly -- and compare them to those that do - everything looks identical to me. All the same data is in all the same places, there are no extra spaces or characters anywhere that are different between the two.
FYI, ALL are subject to the same renaming workflow. I import the originals into a temporary location, cull, and then apply a renaming utility to them to give them names that make sense (generally YYYYMMDDHHMMSS followed by a sequential number plus some English description....) The beginning of that sequence, which is what I expect the sort to be based on, is - 100% - simply a string of numbers, down to the second. Always.
I've tried renaming the oddballs by hand (in Windows) just to see if that does something. Maybe there's something weird my renaming utility is doing - even though it is used on 100% of my pictures, and only a very small percentage have this problem. No change, however.
And another fyi, which is if I view these same pictures in Windows explorer, they sort properly...
What's up?

In Sales order- Extras- packing proposal screen ,HU Sorting problem.

HI All,
In VA01/Va02/VA03 sales order screen-> Extras->packing proposal screen, handling units were shown on the basis of alphabetical sorting of packaging material field. (Handling units are getting sorted on the basis of packaging material field)
As per our requirement, we have to sort on the basis of handling unit number -EXIDV field(First field of table control ).
As it is SAP Standard screen, we have checked it in debugging and it is getting sorted on the basis of alphabetical sorting of packaging material field. Please refer the below mentioned snapshot.

Roopvathy,
1. Did not understand the Packing status in Packing control?
2. I have maintained the Packing instruction in POP1. Only after this I maintained the determination record at the grid level in POF1.
3. I am trying the Automatic packing function in sales order. The profile for sales order(0012) is having the "Start Automatically" ticked and the Determination Procedure for Instruction is also there.
Please reply.

Sorting Problem in FND_MENU_ENTRIES_TL Table

Hi,

I am confused, whether i need to recreate the index in R12, so the records will get store MENU_ID,ENTRY_SEQUENCE,LANGUAGE wise.
Could any one please suggest me how to resolve this problem.
Thanks,

Sorting problems in Grid View

Hi, I'm having a bit of a sorting problem when it comes to an artist with name variations. The example I'm going to use is DJ Tiesto.
There are album I have where he is credited as DJ Tiesto, and others where he is simply Tiesto.
In the end, I'd like these albums sorted chronologically under one name (say DJ Tiesto), while still preserving and showing the proper artist name for each album. I have it set to sort by "Album by Year", which is working fine.
The major problem I am having is that I can't get it to display properly across all iTunes viewing methods: List mode, Grid mode, and Coverflow.
I've tried leaving the Artist field alone, and changing the Sort Artist field to "DJ Tiesto" for all songs, and that almost works:
-List mode groups them all under "DJ Tiesto", while showing each albums Artist as the correct artist name.
-Grid mode sorted by Album groups them all under "DJ Tiesto", while showing each albums Artist as the correct artist name.
-Coverflow sorts them all in chronological order, while showing each albums Artist as the correct artist name.
Problem is, Grid mode sorted by ARTIST creates two separate artists! Some for DJ Tiesto and some for Tiesto!
To correct this I tried changing the Album Artist field for all songs to "DJ Tiesto", which solved that problem but created a bunch of new ones:
-List mode is still correctly grouping them under "DJ Tiesto", while showing each albums Artist as the correct artist name.
-Grid mode sorted by Album is still correctly grouping them under "DJ Tiesto", *however now it is not displaying the correct Artist name for each album!*
-Grid mode sorted by Artist is now grouping them all under "DJ Tiesto", *however it is not displaying the correct Artist name for each album!*
-Coverflow is sorting them in correct chronological order, *however it as well is not displaying the correct Artist name for each album!*
Using the Album Artist tag has created more problems that it has solved! Is there anyone who knows a way to achieve what I am trying to do? I have tried seemingly every option I can and have still not found a way to do this!!
Thanks!

My own method of working involves renaming the files upon import to:
i "shotdate_sequencenumber"
Files are therefore typically named
b 2007-11-25_001
etc.
This way, sorting by Filename automatically sorts by Date by default. And it wouldn't even matter if you added a descriptive text in between the date and number (
b 2007-11-25_Scotland_001

Sorting problem in standard vendor search help

Hi all,
I'm enhancing the vendor search help.
I found that there is a sorting problem in the original standard search help.
The 1st time to search vendor in the search help returns a correct list, then I just sort the vendor in ascending order. This time the column name of the hit list changes and mismatch the actual values.
Any one faced this problem before?
What's wrong are there ?
Thanks.

Thanks Peluka.
But even I don't enhance the vendor search help, I still found that the original standard version has this problem after sorting.
Is that the program bug?
Have anyone encountered this problem before?

Elements Organizer 8. Alphabetic sort on file name

I have been advised to create an Album and then select Album Order. When I do this it still sorts in Date (Newest First) order. I have check Preferences are set to sort Albums alphabetically not manually. Can anyone help me to get my selection sorted in alphabetic order on file name?

Brian
I have tried your link to the ‘feedback.photoshop.com’ thread but get a message ‘Page Not Found’. If you do get through my comment would be as follows:
It is sad that Organizer is not able to sort a key selection of images from multiple source files into alphabetic order by file name. It can sort by ‘Date (Newest First)’ and ‘Date (Oldest First)’ so it should not be that hard to make it sort alphabetically.
When images are loaded into Albums a new sort ‘Album Order’ is offered, and the wording of the ‘Options – Preferences - Keyword Tags & Albums’ for Albums, supported by the Help description, gives hope of an alphabetic sort. However this is misleading. It says Alphabetic or Manual but it should say Album order or Manual. Album order will only be alphabetic if the source images have been pre-sorted into alphabetic sequence by originating in the same folder and are then imported in Folder View. If imported to the Album as thumbnails in Thumbnail View they will remain in the sequence of the thumbnails and even if Alphabetic is selected in the Options they will not be sorted alphabetically.
An alphabetic sort would enhance any future release version of Optimize.
Best wishes
Mike
