Export to Excel With Sort Function

Prajeesh_Nair

Hi all,
I have Exported data to excel and sorted the data in excel from nav itself. The data was sorted ascending, But i want the data in descending order. Any idea? Please need help.
Created a function in Excel Buffer table for sorting

Function SortColumn(StartColumn:code;StartRow:Integer;EndColumn:Code;EndRow:Integer;SortColumn:Code);
BEGIN
XlWrkSht.Range(StartColumn+FORMAT(StartRow-1)).Select;
XlApp.ActiveWindow.FreezePanes := TRUE;
XlWrkSht.Range(StartColumn+FORMAT(StartRow) + ':'+EndColumn+FORMAT(EndRow-1)).Sort(XlWrkSht.Range(SortColumn+FORMAT(StartRow)));
END;


And in report, after calling the CreateSheet and before the GiveUserControl you should execute something like:
SortColumn('A',2,'Z',65000,'B');
to freeze panes and sort the column B from row 2 and on...

As you are loading the buffer from a recordset sorted in Nav, load the buffer from last to first records, use SETCURRENTKEY, FIND('+'), REPEAT UNTIL NEXT(-1) = 0;

WITH Customer DO BEGIN
  RESET;
  SETCURRENTKEY(Name,Address,City);
  IF ISEMPTY THEN
    ERROR('No Records');
  FIND('+');
  REPEAT
    //Add to Excel Buffer

  UNTIL NEXT(-1) = 0;
END;

HTH
