Wickerman Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I haven't been able to find a previous query on this one . . . I have a portal displaying child data, displaying several Fields -- say there are 5 columns in the portal -- and I have little text objects above the portal labelling these fields. Is there a way to turn these labels into buttons that would sort the Portal Records according to that field? Obviously, this is a easy to do when you're doing a list view of a single table -- but is there a means of getting into the portal context to sort them? m I'm not seeing it . . . thanks!

Wickerman Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 Ah, thanks. I was anticipating that the technique might involve using a tab control to simulate the appearance of sorting a single portal -- as with some of the posters on that thread, this is more fuss and labor than the sorting is useful, but it's very helpful to know there isn't a simpler technique simply using the single portal. thanks!
