Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Function SortRows( _
   ByVal keyColumn As Integer, _
   ByVal ascending As Boolean, _
   ByVal showIndicator As Boolean, _
   ByVal comparer As IComparer _
) As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim instance As SheetView
Dim keyColumn As Integer
Dim ascending As Boolean
Dim showIndicator As Boolean
Dim comparer As IComparer
Dim value As Boolean
 
value = instance.SortRows(keyColumn, ascending, showIndicator, comparer)

public bool SortRows( 
   int keyColumn,
   bool ascending,
   bool showIndicator,
   IComparer comparer
)

Parameters

keyColumn: Column whose values are compared during sorting
ascending: Whether the sort is ascending
showIndicator: Whether to display the sort indicator
comparer: IComparer object used to compare the values

Return Value

true if successful; otherwise false

Remarks

This method can be used to sort all the rows in the sheet. It is similar to the simple method,SortRows(Int32,Boolean,Boolean), but adds an option for specifying the way of comparing that is used. Use this method to do a sort beyond the comparison technique provided by the comparer in the .NET framework.

Example

This example illustrates the use of this member by sorting the rows with the specified parameters.

FarPoint.Web.Spread.SheetView sv;
FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo[] s = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo[1];
s[0] = new FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo(0, false);
sv = FpSpread1.ActiveSheetView;
sv.SortRows(0, false, true, System.Collections.Comparer.Default);

Visual Basic

Dim sv As FarPoint.Web.Spread.SheetView
Dim s(1) As FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo
s(0) = New FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo(0, False)
sv = FpSpread1.ActiveSheetView
sv.SortRows(0, False, True, System.Collections.Comparer.Default)
