I am looking for a way to properly sort a report column by date. I need the column to sort in descending order where the most recent date is on top.
wndReportControl.SortOrder.Add wndReportControl.Columns(COLUMN_SENT)
wndReportControl.SortOrder(0).SortAscending = False wndReportControl.Populate The results come out as such:
9/3/2007 9:31 PM
9/11/2007 8:48 PM
9/1/2007 6:46 AM
Any help would be appreciated. Thx. |

The control will sort date/time columns automatically, but you have to properly set Value of corresponding items. It looks for me that you sent a datetime value as a simple String, and it is sorted using String comparison rules. -- WBR, Serge |

I have the sam problem,
tried to add a date value to an item
(as string and as date) but
sorting by date doesn't correct sort
could this be because of the windows
language setting?
 I have also the Problem if I have a Size Column
with mixed SizeValues (xx KB, yy MB, ...) the sorting
is always alphabetic not numeric...
so I also hope for help :-)
regards

Well, when .Value property is available -- it sorts using it's Variant value (which may be numeric, date or anything else). Otherwise it sorts by text strings. It depends on how do you initialize items in your code. -- WBR, Serge |
