I have a list(of list(of string)) in vb.net which is a list that contains lists that have 5 string list items in them.
I want to sort the lists by the second item in the contained lists but I don't know what parameter is needed in the .sort method. What do I need to put in as a parameter. I read something about writing a comparer function and putting that in the brackets but I don't understand how that works.
I seem to have a huge issue right now trying to grab different pieces of a string to place them in a different order in a list. Unfortunately i can't just find the placeholders for the strings and extract the data that way so i was using indexOf to find commas in the string provided. the problem i'm having is that i can assign the first comma and extract 0 - "," but i'm stuck on how to progress the indexof so it will move through the string submitting everything between the comma's.

I have a list of Objects. Each of these Objects contains a list of other Objects (pseudo code) :-
Private Structure Object1
dim Name as string
dim ListOfObject2 as List(Of Object2)
[Code]....
I need to sort the list of Object1 by the Value in Object2. I have a comparison class which sorts Object2 by its Value nicely.
I want the Function to accept List(Of String), Array & String and similarly return List(Of String), Array & String respectively. The Function simply adds a string (month) to the input collection. I just want to use it for string, array and list with needing to think of conversions.

They are then to display all the numbers between them in an "odds list box" and an "evens list box" in ascending order. If however, the lower bound number is higher than the upper bound number - they are to be displayed in the list boxes in "descending order".

I have a generic list, like this:
System.Collections.Generic.List<Question> myquestions = new System.Collections.Generic.List<Question>();
And I have a paging example, using a LINQ table acquried from database, doing this for paging:
var questions = context.Questions
.OrderBy(sidx + " " + sord)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize);
Right now, for paging my populated from code list, I have:
var questionss = myquestions
.OrderBy(x => x.Id)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize);
And what I want is being able to order "myquestions" by a string as in the above example. Is that possible?
I want to rearrange a list of items in different orders for few times; ie: the 2nd in the list becomes the 1st & the previous 3rd becomes the 2nd, ... then the Last one becomes the penultimate one.In the next round, the 3rd of the original list becomes the 1st & the 4th of the original becomes the 2nd and so on. (That is, each item moves one rank above & the Top one goes to the Bottom)Given below is an example.Here, I took only 6 items & rearranged for 5 times only. (I should be able to use several Items and to rearrange for many times).The Original List:
(1) Alpha, (2) Beta, (3) Gamma, (4) Delta, (5) Epsilon, (6) Zeta
2nd List:
(1) Beta, (2) Gamma, (3) Delta, (4) Epsilon, (5) Zeta, (6) Alpha

The code uses dynamically backgroundworkers which all workers great, but with one problem. If you were to look at line:
For Each folderPath In File.ReadAllLines("file path here")
You would see that it loops the text file, and starts background work.
The problem is that it does not list the files in order.
For example were you see "file path here" that were you put the file path.
The text file itself would look something like this:
C: est
C:VB
The program starts listing file from the C:est then goes back to C:VB then back to C:est.
I know the reason why, but I can't stop it. I tried pausing that code inside the loop, but with no luck. How would be able to list the files in order?
vb.net
Private filePaths As New List(Of String)
Private workers As New List(Of BackgroundWorker)
Private Sub GetAllFiles()
For Each folderPath In File.ReadAllLines("file path here")

i am curious and also would like to know how to duplicate this user interface feature in Windows 7. I am aware that if you attempt to sort a column in Windows XP, there is no up/down arrow in the column.
Please have a look at [URL]...It shows part of the task manager process list, and image name column is sorted in descending order.What i am trying to find out is how is the arrow pointing downwards (representing descending) is created.

I got this text in my textbox:

I want to combine multiple lists of items into a single list, retaining the overall order requirements. i.e.:
1: A C E
2: D E
3: B A D
result: B A C D E
above, starting with list 1, we have ACE, we then know that D must come before E, and from list 3, we know that B must come before A, and D must come after B and A.If there are conflicting orderings, the first ordering should be used. i.e.
1: A C E
2: B D E
3: F D B
result: A C F B D E 3 conflicts with 2 (B D vs D B), therefore requirements for 2 will be used.
If ordering requirements mean an item must come before or after another, it doesn't matter if it comes immediately before or after, or at the start or end of the list, as long as overall ordering is maintained.
This is being developed using VB.Net, so a LINQy solution (or any .Net solution) would be nice - otherwise pointers for an approach would be good.
Edit: Edited to make example 2 make sense (a last minute change had made it invalid)

I have a list of strings lets say the items are like this:
item_1
item_2
item_4
item_10
item_8
item_11
If I do list.sort() I get the following
item_1
item_10
item_11
item_2
item_4
item_8
Somehow I need to get these in order numerically but I am dealing with strings not numbers.
I have a line like this

From the above line I have to look the last word MIL. Then I need to arrange the line in ascending orders according to 30MIL,50MIL, 75MIL and 100MIL. Can I use IComparer? Because here I dont know how I can reach the word MIL and sort.
