To implement a reverse sort order to a template-generated listbox is a simple process of populating a tab, and setting the conditional behavior using the Additional Sort order option.

__**Set up a new tab from the Window Designer**____:__

1.Click on (select)the SHEET control.

2.From the Properties Pad, add a new Tab Control.

3.Change the text property of the TAB to "Reverse Order" or the text you want to display on the tab.

__**Set up the list box to work with the new tab:**__

1.RIGHT CLICK on the list control and choose Actions from the popup menu.

2.Select the **Conditional Behavior** tab.

3.Press the **Insert** button.

4.Type CHOICE(?CurrentTab) = n (where n = the number of the Reverse Order tab) in the condition entry field.

5.TYPE -FIL:FieldName (where FIL:FieldName is the label of the reverse sorted field) in the additional sort field entry field. (Notice the minus (-) sign before the field name)

Note: For a case insensitive sort, use -UPPER(FIL:Fieldname)

6.Press the **OK** button to close the list box Actions, and **Save and Close** to exit the Window Designer.

This sets the new tab to sort the list in the reverse order of the field specified.
