2006 IR Open Dicussion Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 By: Martin G. Heinrich - martingheinrich Group Sort 2002-11-26 22:23 Hello It's possible to sort a group in the reports with other criteriy than the SQL statement? Regards Martin By: Jindra Vavruska - ok1fou RE: Group Sort 2002-11-27 08:30 Q: What would be the reason for having different ordering if the only thing you have the query for is to make the report of it? Regards, Jindra V. By: Steven Blough - stevenblough RE: Group Sort 2002-11-27 10:01 I assume you want to resort the data without having to make another call to the database. Currently I use this functionality to allow report users to resort some of our reports by clicking on a column heading. If you would like this class just let me know and I can send it to you or post it with the patches. Good luck Steven Blough By: Martin G. Heinrich - martingheinrich RE: Group Sort 2002-11-27 21:59 Hi Steven oh yes, I'm very interresting of your class. Please send to me (mhe@marisma.com) Thank you Martin Heinrich By: Ian Sleigh - isleigh RE: Group Sort 2002-12-02 23:11 I have a similar problem - any chance of having a look at your class - mail to ian.sleigh@cnm.co.uk Many thanks By: Steven Blough - stevenblough RE: Group Sort 2002-12-03 06:42 I added the classes to the patches area under the patch name of Sortable Datasource. Good Luck Steven Blough By: Martin G. Heinrich - martingheinrich RE: Group Sort 2002-12-03 09:06 Thank you very much, and what must don that I can use the click on a column, or do you have a xml.sample? Martin By: Steven Blough - stevenblough RE: Group Sort 2002-12-03 11:10 The sorting must be controlled in the code. So if you are using JSPs to display the pdf you would use a hyperlink to refresh the report with a sort parameter. The jsp would then regenerate the pdf bassed on the new data order. A warning though, in most cases the filling of the report is where most of the generation time is so you may not see much of a performance gain but you do reduce the load on the database.
