Greetings to everything in forum:

I have a problem, desire to print a classify of clients for different order; for key, or for name, or for sector, somebody to help me how defining different sort, directly it allows me to make one alone.

Thanks.

You can only restore a single sort in each script. To create several sorts in the same script, use a separate subscript for each different sort.

Create sort scripts for each "key, or for name, or for sector". You will have 3 scripts and then the print script on end.

Sorry - have the problem to store a specific sort order for several scripts in v5.5 !

In order to create different sort scripts you MUST perform a real sort on the needed fields and then build the script concerning this specific sorting way.

Doing so,FM 'remembers' the sort order for each script.

Hope this helps, regards.

can you help me explain step for step, because i have three scripts and three layout one for each report but not function.

Thanks for your help.

OK.

Perform the first sort. Create a script which just consists of the Sort (restore, no dialog) step. This script has now saved the sort.

Perform the second sort. Create a script which just consists of the Sort (restore, no dialog) step. This script has now saved the sort.

Sort and create sort scripts for as many sort orders as you need.

In your main script, each time you want to sort the database in a particular way just use the Perform Script step to run the scripted sort.
