numbers out of order
(closed account) says:
If I want certain tasks to be done in certain order, I number them:
1. do this
2. do that
3. try something else
etc.
However, when it comes to task N 10, it does not appear after task N 9, as it should, but after task N 1.
Is there a way to deal with this problem?
Thanks!

Extra typing, but how about prefixing your numbers with a leading zero?
E.g. 01, 010, etc. Logicially, that should fix the sort order, but I have not tried it in RTM.

david.peacock: no, it would not fix anything. 010 will be still after 01, not after 09!

rajan; agreed, that would work too :-)
parf: both methods tested, they work.

David: no, sorry, your method does not work:
01
010
011
02
03
04
- that's how it is arranged.
The method of rajjan works.
The problem is that when it comes to more than 99 tasks, you have to redo the first ones. Annoying.
