DIRECTORY SERVICES
For example, if the Directory Assistance documents for directory A and directory B are assigned search orders of 2 and 1, respectively, and both documents contain only an all-asterisk rule, then directory assistance searches directory B before directory A.
The Directory Assistance view in the directory assistance database sorts Directory Assistance documents by their specified search order.
If you don't specify a search order, or if you assign the same search order to two directories, directory assistance searches the directories in alphabetical order, according to the value specified in the "Domain name" field of the Directory Assistance document.
