Re: BROWSE: order by column

Thats a great idea except I have not ever done that but should figure out
how to do it. I guess there is some command that you could run from clicking
on the columns but I do not know it as yet. My other problem would be to
inform the user to click on the column to sort by it. I would more than
likely have to put some instructions to the user to do that which would be
no problem. Can you give me an example of code to use or how to have the
program know when I click on a column to run different sorts??

Hi Tony,

I converted the browse to a grid on a form and then put commenad buttons
on the form that the user clicked on to order the grid to any of the
columns. If you have a lot of columns that would be a lot of command
buttons. You could have one command that would open up a screen that you
would select which column to order by.
If you have already converted the browse to a grid, then you don't need
any command button. Just add the code to change the sort order to a new
method of the grid (or form or your column base class) and call this
method from the header click event.
