<DIV>Why does this key and value not match? Is it a typo?</DIV>
<DIV>In the real application is the key meant to be an OID and the value just
some value that we don't cate about? ARe you trying to sort by the hash

<P
style="MARGIN: 0px; TEXT-INDENT: 0px; -qt-paragraph-type: empty; -qt-block-indent: 0; -qt-user-state: 0"><BR></P>There
were a couple of suggestions for Fulko about how to improve his sorting of
OID's (strings of the form ^\d+([.]\d+)*$). Attached is my suggestion for
rebuilding the tree and walking the tree. I would be curious to see how this
solution compares to the other solutions, both in terms of readability and
performance.<BR>
