Kevin,

If I recall correctly, I had given you sorter compare code for dates, because that's what you were trying to sort at the time. Off the top of my head, I don't remember why it didn't work for you, but anyway, comparing strings is slightly different, you need to use the string.Compare(s1, s2) method. Your compare method for your sort should look something like this for a string comparison (this code is for a ListViewItem compare, you'll need to tweak it just a bit for your ArrayList):

public override int Compare(object x, object y)
{
	ListViewItem row1, row2;
	string s1, s2;
	row1 = (ListViewItem)x;
	row2 = (ListViewItem)y;

	s1 = row1.SubItems[this.ColumnIndex].Text;
	s2 = row2.SubItems[this.ColumnIndex].Text;

	return string.Compare(s1, s2);
}
