If you do not explicitly tell it what to sort by, it will 'rank' the search results by 'best match', similar to Lycos, where the most matching fields get listed at the top.Add SKUsort=1&SKUsdir=as&SKUtype=num to your search criteria to force it to sort by SKU in ascending order, with SKUs being interpreted as numbers instead of text.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
