C#
public bool SortColumns( int keyRow, bool ascending, IComparer comparer )

Remarks

This method can be used to sort all the columns in the sheet. It is similar to the simple method,SortColumns(Int32,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 columns with the specified parameters.

C#	Copy Code
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.SortColumns(0, false, System.Collections.Comparer.Default);

Copy Code

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.SortColumns(0, false, System.Collections.Comparer.Default);

Visual Basic	Copy Code
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.SortColumns(0, False, System.Collections.Comparer.Default)

Visual Basic

Copy Code

Dim sv As FarPoint.Web.Spread.SheetView
Dim s(1) As FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo
s(0) = New FarPoint.Web.Spread.SortInfo(0, False)
