I'm trying to sort an array based on a structure but whenever I do this, it basically erases all the data in the entire array.I have verified that the array is populated correctly, it is when using array.sort that everything returns blank.

I have create a structure type array. sort the array so i can display the sorted array in a listbox. I want to be able to either sort by last name or the student with the highest score. Here's what I have so far:
Structure student
Dim firstName As String
Dim lastName As String

I heard about the IComparer thing but I didn't know how to implement it into my project.
I made an Array of Structure as given below. Now I want to sort them using different parameters.
"Array.Sort(ArratName)" or "Array.Reverse(ArrayName)" didn't work as I expected.

I want to sort the individuals according to their fitness values descending.

Each individual has a fitness function and has its own X and Y coordinates. I just want to say if individual six (for example) has the lowest fitness value then rank this individual the first one and so on for the rest of individuals.
I'm using VB.Net 2005. I have created a Structure Array that contains 7 fields. I am trying to figure out how to sort this thing and have no idea. I've been reading up on the Array.Sort function and I'm bombarded with Overloads. I just don't know how to set up the statement. Below is my

ReDim RollsCC(NumOfPlayers - 1)
For N As Integer = 0 To (NumOfPlayers - 1)[code]....
Here I am creating a temp single dimensional array, merging my 2d array into it, and then attempting to sort it by Rolls(N,1), which is a integer 1-6, Everything seems to be working right with the exception of this.
RollsCC.Sort(RollsCC, 0, 1)
How would one specify a numeral sort based on the first character in the string? im aware that I am switching Rolls(n,1) and Rolls(n,0) information during the sort.
I'm using a Listview in VirtualMode, so I can 'add' a lot of files almost instantly. A Listview in VirtualMode does not allow sorting, so I need to sort the data myself. The data is stored as a List of Structure (it's faster to load than a List of ListViewItem). The code below works fine, but I need to sort based on multiple variables in the Structure. Code:
View 2 RepliesI've come up with the following and it's partly working.
Public serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5 As SerialPort
Public serialports() As Object = New Object() {serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5}
dComPort = "COM4"[code]....
The above code works fine! But im having trouble trying to now retreive whats stored in the array.In the above example, an entry will be stored in serialports(4), all other array elements will be blank.If I do this it works.
MsgBox(serialports(4).PortName) ' this retuns the value COM4
But I'd like to loop though all array elements and print out ALL the PortNames, The below code doesnt work, I get an error Object variable or With block variable not set.
For i = 0 To serialports.Length - 1
MsgBox(serialports(i).portname)

I am using the Array type .Sort function to sort my array.By default it places the result Array into Ascending order Least to Greatest How do I change that to Descending order Greatest to Least?and How do I change it to Closest to logic? or does that not exist?Assume there is an Array of Numbers 0,13,21,-2,4,5,1.34 and I want them to sort closest to 0 or some other arbitray value; the Output should look similar to:
0,1.34,-2,4,5,13,21
I'm using the following code to read in a highscores file with the score written first and the player's name written to the next line, and then display the top 3 scores or fewer if there aren't 3 scores written to the file. A highscores display should have the scores sorted with the highest first so that's what this program tries to implement.
Array.sort() isn't doing a damn thing. In fact, the program's not even reversing the arrays like it should either. I've tested array.sort() this way with the names and scores arrays given explicitly and it works fine. I thought maybe it was still reading the data as string even though it's declared otherwise but it rounds off decimals when I change the array type to Integer so I'm pretty sure it's not that.
I have no idea why reading the data in from a file changes how it's sorted. My teacher didn't understand what was going on either. Does anyone know what's going on here?

I need to sort an array containing a list of words and search the same using binarysearch. For certain reasons, the word-list must always be sorted using the sorting-rules of "en-US" i.e. American Regional Settings. The code will run under various international Operating Systems and of course this will mean that the word-list will be sorted differently according to the local Regional Settings in use. One problem could arise on a computer/device running with Lithuanian Regional Settings. Why? Because the letter "Y" in most languages is sorted like X-Y-Z while in Lithuanian, the sort order is I-Y-J. This behavior would create havoc to my program.
[Code]...
However, in means of flexibility I believe Guffa's answer is the best one. Why? Let's use another example:In German, the letter Ö is sorted Ö-X-Z while in Swedish and Finnish, the order is X-Z-Ö. In Estonian the sort order is Z-Ö-X. Complicated, isn't it? Guffa's solution will let me force Swedish sorting-oder (changing CultureInfo) on a device running under German Regional settings. Using Comparer.DefaultInvariant with its association to English wouldn't help in this case, probably the letter Ö would end up with O. Therefore my vote will go to Guffa.
I have a structure with 6 arrays inside it that is serializable so I can save the arraylist of them to a file and load them from the file. This part works.
When loaded from the file the data from a single specific record is populated to a listview control, this works on form load. The user can then select different records and in theory display the data in them (specifically the stuff in the arrays).
Displaying the data works as I'm editing the data, and on first load of the form and displaying the "default" record from the structures. Any other time (trying to switch between records during editing or after loading) the record is pulled (as shown by stepping through the code line by line) but the data in the arrays in the structure and only the data in the arrays is missing.
I've gone through all the code that runs and there is nothing that overwrites the array data in the records between displays so I'm at a complete loss as to why this data is going missing.
Below is the structure and the code.
Defined in a Module so as to be accessible when needed in several places through the program:
Public JBonus As New JobBonuses
Public JBonuslist As New ArrayList
On load to set dimensions to the arrays:
JBonus.Str = New Integer(999) {}
JBonus.Agi = New Integer(999) {}
JBonus.Vit = New Integer(999) {}

I have an array x in size of objects (between 1 and 100) and I want to increase the size to 101 ... I've resized the array and that adds the objects but unfortunatly (not suprising) the added items have not been initialised, do I've reverted to using a do while loop and adding the elements indiviually, but looking at the code around it where addrange is used extensivily, I was just wondering if that was a neat vb.net way of doing the same thing
