Sorry, not derived. Battling too many tasks this morning. A read format should do it (so the same column defined as three class property attributes: theDate, theDateYear and theDateMonth (feel free to pick better names :-) [cid:DE4C48C1-45C2-420F-A017-59C3BC72CBD6]

I created a view with the appropriate columns and in the select statement I put in the order by CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW myNewView AS SELECT info1, info2, theDate FROM theTable ORDER BY extract (year from theDate) desc, extract (month from theDate) asc; A one point I actually set up some rules to make the 'VIEW' updatable. YMMV obviously depending on you access to the backend, and if Views are supported.
