Sorting Records

You can sort records using the Grid form and Column form.

You can define how records are sorted by selecting a key path.

Autoline sorts records alphabetically, numerically, or by date. It sorts in ascending order; A to Z or zero to 9, or descending order; Z to A or 9 to zero. Capital letters are sorted before lower case letters.

Items beginning with some punctuation marks or symbols — such as !, #, $, %, or & — are sorted first; items beginning with numbers are sorted second; capital letters are sorted next; and lower case letters are sorted last.

If more than one item begins with the same character, the system evaluates subsequent characters in each item to determine the sort order.
