# Ini_DisableInternalSorting

void Ini_DisableInternalSorting (IniText handle);

## Purpose

Disables automatic internal sorting of the in-memory list.

To reenable automatic internal sorting, call Ini_SortInternally.

Refer to the help for Ini_SortInternally for information on internal sorting.

Effect of Sorting on Performance

If sorting is enabled, the following performance characteristics hold:

- Getting values from the in-memory list is faster.
- If checking for duplicates is enabled (the default), adding values to the in-memory list is faster than it would be for a non-sorted list.
- If checking for duplicates is disabled, adding values to the in-memory list is slower than it would be for a non-sorted list. (See the Ini_SetDuplicateChecking function.)

## Parameters

Name | Type | Description
