Sort order problem
Vote:
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!

be nice if you posted some code as there may be others who have the same problem... give and take.

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);
oPages.Add (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:
