Hi,

In the calendar can u create the inline statements separately for year and month with sort numbers.

LOAD * INLINE [

    Year, Sort_No

    2006, 1

    2007, 2

    2008, 3

    2009, 4

    2010, 5

];

Similarly for month,

LOAD * INLINE [

    Month, Sort_No

    Jan, 1

    Feb, 2

    Mar, 3

];

So that in front end u can join both .
