Sort Order Tab
The Sort Order tab lets you control the order in which records are
presented. For example, you might want records shown in
alphabetical order by last name. The Sort Order tab allows for a two-
level sort, as shown in the example above. Specifying a sort order is
optional. If you do not select a sort order, search results will be
presented in an order determined by the database system.
In the Primary Sort area on the Sort Order tab, Production Form
field name lists all the text, list, date, auto sequence, and print count
fields on the current project’s Production Form. When you select a
field, the prompt for that field appears in Production Form prompt
and the buttons for selecting ascending or descending order become
available. The Secondary Sort area also becomes available, with the
remaining Production Form fields eligible for sorting listed in
Production Form field name.
