PA_OrderByDialog

version 2003

PA_OrderByDialog (defaultTable)

The routine PA_OrderByDialog displays the standard Order By Dialog for the defaultTable . If the user fills the search area and clicks OK , 4D sorts the current selection.

As the routine does not return any information on the sort result, the plug-in should check the "OK" global variable (see the example given in the " Building a query with the API " chapter).

This is like the ORDER BY command when it is used with just one parameter -- the table. See the 4th Dimension Language reference for more information.

Display the Order By dialog for table 1, saving the selection before the sort.

   PA_CopyNamedSelection(1, "\pTheSel");
   PA_OrderBy(1);
   if(!GetOK())
      PA_UseNamedSelection("\pTheSel");
   PA_ClearNamedSelection("\pTheSel");

ORDER BY .
