Thanks Tim. I implemented your code which compiles just fine.
However, when I try to go to the next step by creating a cursor then
trying to do a findfirst, I get the error:
"Find criteria must contain at least one sort field value."
Here is the code now:
#########################################################
private var myCursor:IViewCursor;
var masterListSort:Sort = new Sort();
var titleSortField : SortField = new SortField("title", true, false,
false);
masterListSort.fields = [titleSortField];
masterList.dataProvider.sort=masterListSort;
masterList.dataProvider.refresh();
myCursor= masterList.dataProvider.createCursor();
myCursor.findFirst("b");
##############################################
Am I missing something in the implementation of IViewCursor?
