In the documentation for Array.Sort, only the following overloads are
listed as being supported by the .NET Compact Framework:

Overloads Public Shared Sub Sort(Array)
Overloads Public Shared Sub Sort(Array, Integer, Integer, IComparer)
Overloads Public Shared Sub Sort(Array, Array, Integer, Integer,
IComparer)

so to get your desired result you need to use the second of these and
explicitly supply the range to sort as being the entire array.

Do you think we all have ESP? What error do you get?

Hi
Ok - sorry - this is a better description

1) I just found a new example from the web

http://www.codepedia.com/1/VBNET_ArraySort

2) When I enabled this in the VB Smart Application program
it complains with the following message

"overload resolution failed because no accessible 'sort' accepts this
number of arguments'

All the declarations had no error.

3) When I pasted the same code into Vb.net for win32 project , it works.
