Help with sorting

I am trying to sort a straight table by more than 1 column.  I have created 3 columns that will rank the data based on what columns the user selects.  This method works great for sorts on one column.  If the user selects a sort that would required 2 columns be sorted, the application will only sort by 1 column and ignore the other;

All of the ranking objects have an ascending sort enabled and the other objects don't have any sort associated with them.

any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Issue was due to the mode in the Ranking statement.  I switch from ,4 to ,1 and everything is sorting as expected.

Hi,

If you attach the sample file then it would be easier to provide the solution.  I think if you define the order of the dimensions in the Sort tab correctly then it will sort according.  Order the Dimensions in Sort tab by

Chart Properties -> Sort -> Columns (Priority) -> Change the priority by using Promote and Demote buttons.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.

Unfortunately I can't post my application due to company policy.  I have already have the 3 rank columns in the proper sort priority.
