Sort by <Field> Buttons

[joseppic]

Hi,

Simple question,

I've got a layout with a number of fields I want to create two buttons, one to sort by one field, the other to sort by another field.

The Sort commands within Scripting does not provide the ability to select a field, how is it done please???

take care,

J.

You will need to do the sorts manually first,

First do a sort for one of the fields, and then create a script using the Sort Script Step.

Then do the sort manually for the second field and then create a new Script use the Sort Script Step.

Thanks Lee, pretty obvious I guess now I know.

Recommendation: add a Comment to each script, so you know (later) what you're sorting on.

Not necessary if the label tells it all!

Too right, Lee. It was merely one of my knee-jerk reactions.

Of course, this assumes that the scripts' names are properly descriptive...
