It is possible that most regular responders cannot answer your
question as most of us use newsreaders.
If you are dissatisfied with that quirky web interface you are using,
then please consider a proper newsreader.

It seems that I didn't explain myself.

The question:
If I run a "search for" element in the Microsoft Discussion Groups web site
I receive a list of posts.
Seems that the list is not sorted in any way. or am I wrong ?? is there a
way to sort it (by date)???

Seem that I didn't explain my self.

My Question:
If I "Search For:" in the Discussion Groups on the web site I get a list of
the
results. Is this list sorted in any way (it is not sorted by date) ???

It seems as if rather than failing to explain yourself you failed to read
Alan's reply. Very few of those posting replies to these newsgroups use
the inadequate web interface that you are using but instead use a proper
news reader. For that reason, Alan, myself and most others who post to
this newsgroup are unable to help you.
