Sounds like your TSortedCollection.Compare() needs additional logic.  It 
isn't doing enough comparisons internally to order things properly.

Wouldn't it be better to perform your additional tasks before the 
insertion, then call a normal .Insert?  Why overload something if there 
isn't really a need to?
