Sort order problem
Vote:
0
I have a template that includes a date-element, kind of like the Starting-date used in calendar. I want to be able to sort these elements based on this date-element. How do I do this?
Is there a way I can add my date-element to the standard dropdown-list setting sorting order?
Thanx in advance!

Nevermind!
Sometimes I post my problem before I start thinking. Of course, the PageList can be used for this task.
Have a nice one!

It's in the SDK.
PageListData class (base class for most of the listcontrols), property SortBy.
Takes a PropertyName, sort the list based on that.
Works together with SortDirection were you can select Ascending or Descending.

Ok I was thinking more along the lines of some code that might help someone having problems with sorting... anyway, here's some for the noobs:
#14184
PageDataCollection oPages = Global.EPDataFactory.FindPagesWithCriteria(p, col);
(GetPage(p));
FilterSort sorter;
if (sortOrder == _ASC)
sorter = new FilterSort(FilterSortOrder.PublishedAscending);
else
sorter = new FilterSort(FilterSortOrder.PublishedDescending);
sorter.Sort(oPages);

Sorry for not including code, but the solution was so simple I thought I was the only one not seeing it. Anyways, I used the PageList like this:
