SetDataSearch

Does anyone know if you can sort or sequence robot targets in the order it was specified it the searched module. I need to search for robtargets and order 1-10. I get a random order when I use SetDataSearch expression "[1-10]" .

    Sorry RoboRob... you can't do that with setdatasearch..... Seems that I did this not very long ago, had to write my own sorting algorithm that worked on strings obtained from the returned datablock.
     

    The native command returns them in an order based on something other than an intuitive alphabetical heirarchy, but they are not random...

     

    maybe someone from ABB could explain what that ordering is based on.... and why!?
