Re: Sorting DDS

If you think about it, relative PRTF records use SPACE and SKIP keywords to
position themselves with respect to the previous field in the DDS, So it
doesn't make any sense to sort them. Absolute PRTF record using row and
column values just like DSPF records and can be sorted by simply right
clicking on the record background and selecting "Sort:" from the context
menu.

Hey Terry, sorting of fields is in there for Report Designer as well, but
only shows up for absolute records and not for relative records.

I found a thread on IBM's forum and found that it works (for me) in the

Screen Designer but not in Report Designer. Is that right?

Yes. I don't know if printer file DDS sorting is in the works or not.
