Help me with my inability to see a simple solution

[william humphrey]

I just found out that the number set:

(001,002,003,005,006,007,008,009,5,6)

wrecks most of the solutions.  It was because SQL was sorting a way that
included the zeros in the sort so the sort would come out looking like the
above. I didn't notice what was causing the problem until I scrolled way
down the list and saw the numbers without the zeros in front of them.
