FIX: Results are incorrectly sorted when you retrieve data from a table by using the System.Data.DataTable.Select(String filterExpression, String sort) method in the .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 (SP1) (900468)

SYMPTOMS

You retrieve data from a table by using the System.Data.DataTable.Select(String filterExpression, String sort) method in the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 (SP1). The filter expression that you use to retrieve the data joins two conditions with "AND." When the results of your data retrieval request are returned, they are sorted on the first column of the table. This problem occurs even though you have specified a different column as the sort key.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because of a problem with the System.Data.dll file in the .NET Framework 1.1 SP1. The affected version of the System.Data.dll file in the .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 is installed on the computer when you apply one of the following:

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1).
The hotfix that is mentioned in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
891742 FIX: Multiple conditions that use the AND operator and that are passed to the Select method of the DataTable object may be ignored after you install the .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1
