Re: Sorting a data structure array...

I have a data structure array that I am sorting using qsort and I'm
observing some 'unintended' sorting going on and thought I'd see if
someone else has seen this.
My data structure array contains 9 fields, one of which is a status
field (1.0) which is what I am using to sort by...I want to see the
higher status' last. When I load up the ds array only two rows contain
a status other than 0. When qsort is called, the ds array comes back
with the higher status' last, however, those that have a status of zero
are also re-ordered amongst themselves. Does any body know why that is?
I would think that if there is no difference in the value of status,
then these would not be 'touched'.
...

    if element1.status < element2.status;
       return -1;
    elseif element1.status > element2.status;
       return 1;
    elseif %addr(element1) < %addr(element2);
       return -1;
    endif;
    return 1;
