Overview

You use a sort order to define the order in which records are displayed. The data in the database remains the same; only the way data is being displayed changes. CATraxx lets you sort on up to five fields.

There are two ways to change the sort order:

•	Select a sort order from the Sort Orders drop-down list above the browse list.

•	Click the heading of the column you want to sort on to create a temporary sort order.

A field can be sorted in either ascending order (letters are sorted from A to Z and numbers from 0 to 9) or descending order (letters are sorted from Z to A and numbers from 9 to 0).

The Sort Orders drop-down list above the grid indicates which sort order that is currently active.

If you cannot see the Sort Orders drop-down list, choose Lists -> Layouts/Sort Orders/Filters from the View menu.

Simply select a sort order from this drop-down list to change the active sort order. Right-click the drop-down list to display a popup menu with more options:

Add Sort Order	Creates a new sort order.
Clone Sort Order	Creates a copy of the currently active sort order.
Edit Sort Order	Lets you edit the currently active sort order.
Delete Sort Order	Deletes the currently active sort order.
Sort Orders	Brings up the 'Sort Orders' window. Here you get an overview of all available sort orders.
