Location: Sydney, Australia              Hi,

I am loading a ListBox using data that is 'Pre Sorted' using 'ORDER BY' in the 
SQL SELECT.

Is it possible to change the ListBox header appearance to reflect the actual 
sort order?

Posts: 34              Try this:
  Code:dim theheader as integer=1 //the column from 0 and up
dim sortdir as integer=-1 //-1 descending 1=ascending
Listbox1.ColumnSortDirection(theheader)=sortdir
Listbox1.PressHeader(theheader)


This however also sorts the listbox, to prevent that, add this line to the 
Listbox 'SortColumn' event.
Code:Return True



Not sure if this is the best way to do this though.

I had it all except 'PressHeader', I couldn't find the missing ingredient.

Thanks again for your help.
