    Hi Brendan,

    In my form Projects I’ve got a field Project Status where i can select the status from a picklist. The picklist is made up in this order; Active, Waiting for PO No, Invoiced and Closed. When I select the Project Status field as First Sort Field the sorting is done in alphabetical order instead of in the order of how the picklist is made up. Just a small inconvenience but maybe something you could look into…

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Hi Mike,

    Tap Forms doesn’t order the records based upon the order of the values in the Pick List. It will only order them alphabetically ascending or descending. You would have to put some sort of numeric ordering prefixed into your Pick List values to accomplish what you want.

    Thanks,

    Brendan
