Secondary task sorting....?

[Scotty]

Hi all

I have one of my POOMs set to show all tasks, sorted by due date.

it works fine, BUT, I'd like to be able to do a secondary sort, say on subject (so that the tasks will still sort by due date but, if I have several tasks due on one day, those tasks will be sorted by subject).

I've played with changing registry settings (for example, adding [sort-subject] immediately after the [sort-duedate] entry) but this doesn't do what I want (in that case, it sorted all tasks by subject - presumably, it sorted first by due-date, then re-sorted the entire list by subject).

Anyone know if secondary sorting can be done? If not, I'll add it to the "feature requests" threads....

Thanks..........Scotty

I think only one level of sorting is supported at this time, so you would need to make a request for this feature.

Thanks, Fishboy, I'll do that.

After posting, I noticed something rather odd.....when I display all tasks sorted by due date, it works (as I said), but I just noticed that the tasks are also sorted in reverse alphanumeric order !!  I found this by making some new tasks, entitled A, B, C & D....and when sorted by duedate, they are listed by TP in the order D-C-B-A.......so it seems that TP is sorting by reverse alpha (or else there's some OS or outlook default to alpha sort in reverse)

All the best................Scotty

Just a "me too"

Thanks, glad it's not just me (I thought maybe my iPaq had some weird "reverse sort" function, maybe from some stray software, but I couldn't see anything obvious in the registry....)

I've added it to the feature request area

All the best..............Scotty
