Sorting

You can sort database software records in a folder using one of the following methods:

  • Click the header of the field that should be used for sorting. In the displayed menu select the order of sorting (ascending or descending):



  • Use the Folder > Sort Records... menu item.
  • Create a corresponding toolbar button or a form button with a script containing the Sort Records action.

Note. Sorting can be incorrect in case of using incorrect elements for data storage (for example, if you store numerals in a text field). To migrate data from one field to another, use the Records - Convert Records menu item.


Sorting Configuration

The sorting set-up window allows sorting by four fields. To change the sorting order by a selected field, use the Z-A check box to the right of the field name.
