Hi,

 

I am using the example of view filtering - key by vector as explained in the demonstration application for xPages.

 

I have 4 columns of data, 2 of which require filtering.  I implemented this with the first 2 columns hidden, and this has been working fine displaying the date column (3) and the description (4).  The problem is that the data is sorted as per the first 2 columns, not the date column.

 

So I decided to restructure the columns, moving the date first (and visible), the next 2 (not visible) and the description as the last, and was always going to pass an empty string for the first element.

 

My sample code is as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------

var vtr:java.util.Vector = new java.util.Vector();

var t1 = sessionScope.App;
var t2 = sessionScope.Module;

vtr.addElement("");
@If(t1 !="All" & t1 != null ,vtr.addElement(t1),vtr.addElement(""));   
@If(t2 !="All" & t2 != null ,vtr.addElement(t2),vtr.addElement(""));

return vtr;

------------------------------------------------------------------

This has now broken it all.  I wondered if it was because of the date field, not being text?  Am I on the right path?  Any thoughts on how to fix it?  My ultimate goal is just to have the data sorted by date.  I did try using the Sort column property of the view panel however that ignored me.
