Hello,
I am currently using Listview control.
The sorting feature of the control is useful. - <ListviewCtrlName>.Sorted = True
-
<ListviewCtrlName>.SortKey = <FieldToSort>
-
<ListviewCtrlName>.SortOrder = <SortOrder>
It sorts well with Text type but is weird when sorting Number Type.
Ex.
(before sorting)
[1st] 3
[2nd] 2
[3rd] 11
[4th] 4
[5th] 1
(after sorting)
[1st] 1
[2nd] 11
[3rd] 2
[4th] 3
[5th] 4
The correct one should be:
[1st] 1
[2nd] 2
[3rd] 3
[4th] 4
[5th] 11
How to sort number type correctly?

If you set the SortKey Property = 0 it will Sort using the ListItem Object's Text property. Try setting it to a Value between 1 and Number of ColumnHeaders - 1 to Sort using the SubItem whose Collection Index you specify, then see what happens.
@ADezii
(I edited this reply coz I was wrong...sorry)
Thanks for the reply ADezii.
But I noticed something. The SortKey is the column index in listview.
It starts with zero(0) so in my example, since there's only 1 column so
it starts with index 0. If I got 3 columns and want to sort the 2nd, I will
be using index 1. (please correct me if I'm wrong)
I tried sorting the column with number type and yet the sorting is wrong.
The sort is treating it like an alpha when it should be numeric.

As soon as I get a chance, I'll create a DB with a ListView incorporated in a Form and see if I can ' Sort' the problem (LOL)!

It looks like you're simply sorting on the string value, instead of the numeric value.

Which values are you actually using?

Recognized Expert Expert @keirnus Keirnus, I do see your dilemma in that the ListView Control seems to always want to do an Alpha Sort on Column Headers regardless of the Data Type. I'll look into it further at a later Date, but I do have a solution at this time. - In the ColumnClick() Event of the ListView Control, if the Index of the ColumnHeader is anything but the 1st Column, set the SortKey = ColumnHeader.In dex -1 then set the Sorted Property of the ListView = True.
- If the Index of the ColumnHeader = Column 1, then:
- Clear the ListView Control
- Set the Sorted Property = False
- Create a RecordSet setting the Primary Sort Order of your Numeric Field to Ascending
- Re-populate the ListView based on this Recordset
- This entire process will be transparent to the User, and, unless you are dealing with very large Recordsets, will populate quite rapidly.
- I created a Demo Database for you, simply download the Attachment, then Click on the Column Headers to set the Sorts for the 3 Columns

I'm confused.
I started by assuming you were referring to a ListBox control, but I didn't find any of these properties there so I stopped and looked again.
I found the ListView control, but even there, I found those properties missing.
I'm using Access 2003. Is it possible you're using a different version?

Hello NeoPa, these Properties definately exist for the ListView Control but not via the Normal Interface, you can access them either by: - Right Click the ListView Control ==> ListViewCtrl Object ==> Properties ==> Sorting Tab
- Object Browser ==> Class = MSComctlLib ==> Search for ListView ==> Properties, Methods, and Events will appear in the Right Hand Pane
I can't lay my hands on a reference right now, but I'm about 99.9% sure that ListView controls only sort on strings and treat any other datatype as if they were strings when sorting, which is what it's doing here.

tblCourses one to many to tblEvents.
A course may have an intro workshop (a type of event), a mid course
workshop, a final exam. Or any combination. Or something different in the
future.
At the moment the printed output is usually going to Word. It's turning into
an unholy mess, because I'm having to prepare umpteen different Word
templates, and the queries that drive them, depending on what events a
course has.

Hi folks.
Python appears to have a good sort method, but when sorting array elements
that are very large, and hence have very expensive compares, is there some
sort of already-available sort function that will merge like elements into
a chain, so that they won't have to be recompared as many times?
Thanks!

I have a database that contains records with IDs like "H1, H2, H3, ...,

might be "Housing Policy 1" and so on. For some more insight, not all
policies will be prefixed with an "H", an in fact they could be prefixed
with *any* letter combination, but they will always end with a number.
