My question for Jerry is why do you need a standard? For any given country (or indeed groups of countries) the sorting R to L will work because within that country all locations will follow a standard. So if you had a list it might look like:
England, County, Town, Street England, Different County, Different Town England, Different County, Third Town United States, State, County, Town United States, Different State, Different County So all the related locations, that is, by country, or English county or USA state are grouped together. What else is required? I ask this from the point of view of what am I missing? I can't see how this would not always work because for any given location you would always have a location with the precision increasing from R to L. That is, if something happened in Australia and that is all I knew then the location is Australia and it would be grouped with all other Australian locations. If I knew it was in Sydney then automatically I know it is Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. As long as I always stick with my own "standard" for any given country then surely the location list R-L sorting will work? Regards, Gavin...
