I amended the mnd.def file as follows in the hope of getting the rarity
column to sort in the order *I* want: <group id="rarity" name="Rarity" width="10" mincount="1" maxcount="1" dynamic="yes"> <value id="foilonly" name="Foil Only" order="1"/> <value id="promo" name="Promotional" order="2"/> <value id="rare" name="Rare" order="3"/> <value id="uncommon" name="Uncommon" order="4"/> <value id="common" name="Common" order="5"/> <value id="fixeddeck" name="Fixed Deck" order="6"/> </group> Unfortunately, the rarity data still sorts alphabetically. Obviously I've missed something either here, or somewhere else Any pointers gratefully appreciated. I know I should read the dox thoroughly, but if I did that I couldn't call myself a programmer any more R. ------------------------ Yahoo!

Obviously I've >missed something either here, or somewhere else You'll need to specify sequence="explicit" in the group tag, e.g: > <group id="rarity" name="Rarity" width="10" mincount="1" maxcount="1" >dynamic="yes" sequence="explicit"> Have a look at the 'date' tag group for an example of it in action. (The example you gave also won't work because the tag names are slightly different from the names of the tags that are generated and used.) The change you made seems just as useful as sorting in alphabetical order (if not more so), so I'll add it to the next release of the MND datafiles, which should be out as soon Ed gets back to me with some details (hint hint, Ed . One question, why does "Foil Only" supercede "Promotional"? I would have thought that promotional cards would be at the top, with 'foil only' just below. But then I'm not a CCG expert... Ah, is it because there's only a single 'foil only' card in the whole game? -- Colen McAlister (colen@wolflair.com) Lone Wolf Development www.wolflair.com ------------------------ Yahoo!

Which details are you after? > One question, why does "Foil Only" supercede "Promotional"? There are fewer in existence. FOIL ONLY are cards that should have been printed in Foil and non-foil versions, but the non-foil were left off, so only a few hundred exist at all. ------------------------ Yahoo!
