What version are you using?

$Version      = 5.0.0 for Microsoft Windows (June 10, 2003)
$TopDirectory = C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\5.0.0

In[1]:= $Version

Out[1]= 5.0 for Microsoft Windows (June 10, 2003)

In[2]:= A = {3, 5}; B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7};

In[3]:= Intersection[B, A] == Sort[A]

Out[3]= True

In[4]:= SublistQ[B_List, A_List] := Intersection[B, A] == Sort[A];

In[5]:= SublistQ[B, A]

Out[5]= True
