Strange sorting problem in the select

Hi everybody,

I have the following code in form.Activate (I hide and activate this form multiple times):
.cmbRegions.rowsource=''	
		select towns.fullname, towns.Town , towns.ccode ;
			from towns ;
			where towns.Town = BldMstr.Town ;
			union ;
			select towns.fullname, PostRegn.joiningtwn as Town, towns.ccode ;
			from PostRegn, towns ;
			where PostRegn.joiningtwn = towns.Town and PostRegn.Town = BldMstr.Town ;
			into cursor tRegion
			
		.cmbRegions.rowsource='tRegion'
		.cmbRegions.listindex=1
I want the current BldMstr.town to be the first item in this combo and I want it to be displayed. However, it seems like this cursor sorted somehow differently. Do you see a reason, why the first item in union is not the first selected?

I've just thought about a cure for this problem (add a new sorted field), however, it still seems strange to me.

Thanks in advance.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
