Sorting the display order on different columns

Although a dataset may have a key field which logically orders the data—Customer ID for the Customers dataset in this example—it may at times be convenient for the user to see the data ordered by a different field. The List Viewer supports this directly.

Note

Depending on a range of factors, sorting can easily begin to be unacceptably slow for your users. Be sure to test any sorting feature you implement with the largest datasets users may encounter, on the slowest hardware configuration a user is likely to have.
