>In my grid class I allow users to sort on up to 3 columns by clicking in the headers. I convert all the fields to characters in order to string them together. For example, the code might look something like:

Elyse,
Try this:
INDEX ON CharField1 + BINTOC(NumField2) TAG temp
This will work, however, only if the numeric field has no decimal places.
