OrderingLinks property

Applies to
TIB_Dataset

Declaration
Property OrderingLinks : TIB_StringList;

Description
This property defines the relationship between columns and entries in the OrderingItems table.

Entries should be of the following format:

[< tablename >.]< columnname >=< numerical reference in OrderingItems >

The first item in OrderingItems is considered to be 1 and not 0.

If this property is defined correctly then the IB_Grid has the ability to display a glyph in the corresponding column's header so that when the user clicks on it the grid is sorted in the order of the column clicked on. If both an ascending and descending criteria are supplied then each click on the grid column header will toggle the sort accordingly.

Please refer to the Contact sample application to see how this is implemented.
