The Web user sees the data sorted in the order the fields appear in the
Sort Order list, and the Sort button does not appear.
You can choose either ascending or descending order. You can also
choose to have data sorted by a custom order based on a value list. The
data are sorted in the same order they appear in a predefined value list.
For information on specifying a sort order, see “Sorting records” on
page 4-30.
