.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / September 2004Comparing two strings
A simple question: How to compare two strings finding out which one should go first alphabetically? In other words is there a function that would told us which string of two strings should stand first in alphabet? I hope you understand my problem.

Hrmph. <disparaging comments withheld.> Anyway, the guy said he was using C#. Even so I feel like a moron since that isn't default in C# either.
