Thanks for your reply Michael, but I think you misunderstand what I am
looking for.
If my screen is displaying 7 different columns, the user wants to be able
to sort the data by ANY combination of those columns
for example
Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4, Col5, Col6, Col7
and then (by magic) the same data by
Col7, Col6, Col5, Col4, Col3, Col2, Col1
AND THEN
Col6
Or maybe
Col5, Col6, Col1
This would mean building the ORDER BY within the SQL statement based upon
the request of the user.
So as per my original request
if anyone can help me, I am looking for an example of embedded SQL and
Dynamic
Sorting Subfiles - Page at a time (with the ability to position to a
particular piece of data)
However - Michael, I will still look up your suggestion
Thanks in advance

Look in the archives for uses of the CASE statement. I don't remember the
exact syntax at this time, but you can use the case statement to order by a
specific field based on the user selection.

Even more embedded SQL....

Hi All,
I have been given a project that requires the need to display, within a
subfile, the data from 2
separate files with the ability to sort that data from any number of
different columns. So I
thought to myself, this smacks of embedded SQL and Dynamic Sorting
Subfiles. The unfortunate
thing is that the data I have to display is over 15,000 records long (and
growing) so if anyone
can help me, I am looking for an example of embedded SQL and Dynamic
Sorting Subfiles - Page at
a time (with the ability to position to a particular piece of data)"
Some title for an article huh? If anyone has an example of what is
required, or could point me
in some direction, I would be very grateful.
