Update:

After further research and testing it seems to occur when there are
character fields on the form that are larger than 255 characters.  When
I change the field length to 255 or less the columns reappear in the
Sort/Levels tab.  I was able to reproduce this using ARS 7.0 Patch 1 as
well as Patch 2.

Workaround: Delete the character fields that are larger than 255
characters. Save.  Add new characters fields (with the same IDs if
workflow is attached) with the previous lengths.  Changing the length of
the fields to 255, then saving, then changing it back didn't fix it.

Note: I have only tested this on display-only forms. For regular forms
or any form with data you would need to first store the contents of the
character fields (> 255) in other new fields before deleting the problem
fields.

I have reported this as a bug to our support vendor.

Subject: ARS 7.0 Patch 2 Table Fields Sort Bug

ARS 7.0 p2
Windows Server 2003
SQL Server 2005

I think I found a bug with Table fields in ARS 7.0 Patch 2.  It works on
another computer with Patch 1.

On the Sort/Levels tab of a table's Field Properties window not all
columns are visible/available...only on Display Only forms. On Regular
forms all columns [in the source form] 255 characters or less are
visible, as they should.

I even tried copying a table field originally created on a Regular form
to a Display Only form.  Most of the sort columns are no longer visible
on the DO form.  I tried List View and Tree View display types.

Has anyone else experienced this?
