|  Subj:  |   |  PPI Partition Order  |

In case of partitioned primary indexes, are the partitions value ordered or hash ordered? If I have a sales table, and I have a PPI partitioned
on SaleDate, are the partitions ordered by the date value or the hash of the date value? This would help me decide, whether I want to use the
between date1 and dateN or actually spell out the date values so I can use a equality condition (date in (date1, date2, ...etc,.)). 
 Thanks.
