Hi,
I have a report cursor that has two columns (simplified), EMPL_ID, EMPL_NAME. Some records of the cursor have EMPL_NAME blank (even though EMPL_ID has value). But there is one record that has both the EMPL_ID and EMPL_NAME blank.
And I want to index this cursor on EMPL_NAME but the record with both EMPL_ID and EMPL_NAME blank should be at the top. I tried the following (but it gives error):
INDEX ON IIF(EMPTY(EMPL_ID,EMPL_ID,EMPL_NAME) TAG TAGNAME
I can update the value of the EMPL_NAME of the blank EMPL_ID with anything but so far I cannot find a value that will "put" this record at the top (because some other records could have blank EMPL_NAME too).
Any suggestions?
