Sorry, you're right, this was ambiguous. However, I wanted to sort
alphabetically by name, and the example that Mukul has gave works for
me (thanks Mukul). BTW, the XML example was also malformed, as Mukul
says, because the tag </Element> should be </BigElement>. Thanks for
all responses, I am learning a lot :D
