Hello Mitchel

Thanks a lot for providing this useful module! The sort order of documents is limited to MaxLength=3 and only positive numbers:

MaxLength="3">
CssClass="NormalRed" Display="dynamic" resourcekey="SortOrderError">
CssClass="NormalRed" Display="dynamic" ValidationExpression="^\d*$" resourcekey="SortOrderFormatError">

The sort direction ist ascending.

Imagine you have monthly reports und you want to sort them descending, that is the new ones on top. With the current validations I could start with 999 for the first report and for the next 998 and so on. It would be much more intuitive if I could set the sort order to negative numbers like -200801, -200802 (indicating 2008 january, february and so on).

Therefore I propose to ease the validation and set it to the limits of the accordingly to the int-Datatype.

Kind regards

Nicolo
