Re: Nullify the sort in Table

Hello,
Using Windev 22

Searching for a way to disable sort [ eg. TableDisableSort], similar to TableDisableFilter.

I add rows to a table, running a query, and adding rows to a table with TableAddLine. Rows get added as the last row. Then I loop through the table,
1. add a few column values,
2. sort it,
3. Display the table as a report

Now when I re-run the report without closing the window, the rows added to the table get sorted automatically. This makes the looping to miss few rows for processing.

When this report is run for the first time, there is no sort for that table defined. When I run the program a second time, without closing the window, I want that same status (no sort) to be set. [ Since I sort after adding rows, it takes that sorting order by default ].

Is there any way to clear the sorting anyway? eg. like TableDisableSort similar to TableDisableFilter

Hello Sivaprakash

From the help on TableSort


Canceling a sort that was previously defined on a memory Table or TreeView Table control

<Result> = <Table control>.Sort(<False>)


<Result>: Boolean

•True if the sort was canceled,
•False if a problem occurred.

Thanks, AI

But this is not working. I get the following error in the line Table_TrialBalanceAsOn.Sort(False)
Error:'sort' element not found in 'Table_TrialBalanceAson' element.

The other syntax is working fine
TableSort(Table_TrialBalanceAson, "COL_SLNo")

I add records to Table_trialBalanceAsOn only through
nRow = TableAddLine(Table_TrialBalanceAson)

Any suggestion?

Is it so hard to read the help?

Thanks Argus,

My bad. Don't know how I missed this part in the help. Thanks.
