Frank,

I dont think this is in this class. You can only sort on 1 column. The class is making an index on the column descending or ascending (single / double click) what you require it to build a compound index on a number of fields and than dynamically - whow that would be great! I believe to achieve that you shall have to built a special indexing form in which you let the user indicate which columns to use and which one to be the main index.

The whole logic and routine of Marcia's class is very straightforward and to be found in the procedure Sortheader.prg

Regards,

Koen
