Hi All
I have drop down fields in an app that Iam allowing admin users to maintain themselves through and admin section within the app that they only have access to.
In this example Iam using sites ,so an admin user can create a new site and it will automatically become available on the dropdown but it creates the last record at the bottom and not in alphabetical order which is what my users are asking for because they are site names.
The drop down saves data in SQL I just connect the field to a sql data source called sites [rp].[sites].
So how can I ensure that when a dropdown record is created it sorts it in alphabetical order?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Pretty straightforward fortunately.
Sort(datasource, sortByColumnName, AscendingOrDescending)
Assuming your column is called 'Site Name' heres how to do it.
Sort([rp].[sites],'Site Name',Ascending)
