Arrange number in ascending order

[Batrisyia_]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know on how to arrange number in ascending order for data table. I've tried to use sort by column and somehow it returned not in order. Here's the code:

SortByColumns(
Filter(
Mastercopy_1,
SYSTEM = Dropdown1.Selected.Result,
'Sub System'= Dropdown4_1.Selected.Result,
'EQUIPMENT TYPE'= Dropdown5_1.Selected.Result,
COMPONENT= Dropdown6_1.Selected.Result
),
"OPERATING_x0020_TEMP_x0020_(°C)",Ascending)

Your numbers appear to be stored as text so why not convert them to numbers in your datasource and your original code will work.

If you cannot make the conversion here's another way to do it without.

Sort(
    Filter(
        Mastercopy_1,
        SYSTEM = Dropdown1.Selected.Result,
        'Sub System'= Dropdown4_1.Selected.Result,
        'EQUIPMENT TYPE'= Dropdown5_1.Selected.Result,
        COMPONENT= Dropdown6_1.Selected.Result
    ),
    Value('OPERATING_x0020_TEMP_x0020_(°C)'),
    Ascending
)

Thank you @mdevaney. Finally the code is working. May I know how to convert them into number in datasource?

Change the column type from single line text to number if you are using SharePoint.
