Using a view you have to generate the index you need on your own, instead of relying on it in the .cdx. If it's confusing it's pretty easy.

When you load your data in teh form, I would :

use lv_my_view NODATA && nodata brings the shell with no records
Index on my_criterior tag my_tag && create the tag
requery() && now bring in the data into an indexed environment

Now in your click event for the header:
set order to my_tag
this.??????.refresh() I an not sure about your grid so just do a right mouse click to see the object list. Click on the grid itself and add the refresh() to the end.

>thanks for answering back. My grid is based on a updateable view (lv_dposcr) and the table it is referencing is person_tbl. When I issue set order to lv_dposcr.lname, I get the following error:
