Are you sorting the list of contacts (List.Sort)?

 

[hookshy]

After getting the contacts list with contacts2 ct.getall....
ct_list.Sort(True)
'and the sorting method is not as acurate ..the contacts are gouped in 2 ... first part from a to z ..then other at the end from a to z ....
not all contacts are blend into single list sorted from a to z ...hope to make myself understood

sincronizare_contacte
ct_list.Sort(True)

 

[Erel]

You cannot sort a list of contact objects.
I recommend you to switch to ContactsUtils. It is more powerful than Contacts2.

Anyway you need to create a list with custom types and then call List.SortType.

I will try
The sorting refers itself to a string list ...not a objects list ,,but yet I understand the problem so I will make some more tests and come back with an answer hopefully
Thank you
