    Sorting a custom collection

    How is it possible to sort a custom strongly typed collection by a specific field of an object?

    so I have a collection which is of type "Article"

    I now want to add article objects to this collection BUT when it adds the item, I want to sort the collection by a specific field on the article (in this case, for example the ID field of type integer)

    any ideas?

    I am implementing the IComparable and overriding the CompareTo but doesnt seem to fire it. Also... inheriting from Collection<T>
