morning,

Couuld anyone help me with a means of adding a sort table column heading server behavior for a recordset? I've come across buyable behaviours but I don't think that this is so complex that I need to get them. I haven't found anything codewise that is complete enough for someone who is learning as I am. ASP and Access and Dw MX is what I'm working with.

thanks

Bob

Create a recordset that sorts by a column

Modify your code. Look for

ORDER BY YourField ASC"

Change to

ORDER BY " & request.querystring("SortBy"

Then put links in your table header that include parameters:
<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
&lt;a href="default.asp?SortBy=ClientName"&gt;Client Name&lt;/a&gt;
</font id=code></pre id=code>
