Hi,

In some cases I want to use memo fields in the grid of a clistobjedit and I limit the memo field by using the substr function [e.g. substr(v_view.cdescription,1,50)]. When a column of the grid in clistobjedit has that kind of limited memo field as a controlsource, clicking on the header causes problems in the setorder method of the grid. Up till now I solved the problem by subclassing and changing the setorder method in:

LPARAMETERS tcControlSource, tcTagName
** If memo fields are used  (e.g. SUBSTR(v_source.memofield,1, 50))
** strip the string function

IF AT('(',tcControlSource) > 0 THEN
	tcControlSource = RIGHT(tcControlSource,LEN(tcControlSource)-AT('(',tcControlSource))
	tcControlSource = LEFT(tcControlSource,AT(',',tcControlSource)-1)
ENDIF

IF PCOUNT() < 2 THEN 
	DODEFAULT(tcControlSource)
ELSE
	DODEFAULT(tcControlSource, tcTagName)
ENDIF

Since a lot of forms in the framework use this grid, a lot of subclassing is involved.
Is there a better to get the same result?
