Any way to set the sort order other than in the query?

The report has an OrderBy parameter so the user can select which field is used for sorting. The query has an OrderBy clause referencing the parameter. The problem is that it doesn't always pay any attention to the parameter. (Since it appears to be intermittent my suspicion is that it really never pays any attention to it but that sometimes whatever actually is determining the order gives the same results.)
The problem is that putting an OrderBy clause in a query is the only way I know of to determine the output order of a report. Is there any other way?
Thanks.

Unfortunately Break Order doesn't seem to be controlling the sort order. I found that the value was set on numerous fields but I've changed them all to None & it still isn't displaying in the order specified by the OrderBy parameter.
Note that this is a 'form layout' report with one page/record so it doesn't really have columns-but the pages are supposed to be printed in the order chosen by the user from a list of values. It doesn't seem to matter what's selected from that list though, the output appears in the same order as if no Order By clause is specified.
Can you think of anything else that would cause the report to ignore the order by clause?
thanks.

  • I had ordered a photo book print two years back. I want to reorder the same book again now. However, I have lost the album project in iphoto. Is there any way to see my print order history and reorder the same book for print ?

    Is there any way to see my print order history and reorder the same book for print ?

    No.  Apple only keeps the pdf file for a book for 30 days.  Without the library and book project you won't be able to reorder the same book.
    Even though the horse is out of the barn the following tutorial might be of help for future books, i.e. create a new library for each book): iP08 - Archiving an iPhoto Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date

  • Any way to set "enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials" from the WL console?

    Someone recently advised me to set "enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials" to "false" in my laptop config.xml to avoid some annoying login prompts to the application I'm deploying locally. I haven't tried this yet because I wanted to know if there was a page in the WebLogic admin console that can set this flag.
    If not, how exactly does this get set in the config.xml? Where does it go, and exactly what would the element look like?

    Hi David,
    <font color=red> Admin Console does not provide any feature to enable or disable "EnforceValidBasicAuthCredentials" </font><br>
    You can use WLST script If you don't have access to "config.xml" like following:
    "ChangeEnforceValidBasicAuthCredentials.py"
    connect('weblogic','weblogic','t3://localhost:7001')
    edit()
    startEdit()
    cd('SecurityConfiguration')
    cd('base_domain')
    set('EnforceValidBasicAuthCredentials','false')
    save()
    activate()
    print 'Now Restart Your Server...'Above is a Non-Dynamic Change...It means ...once you run the Script ..you need to restart the Server to reflact the changes...
    In the Above Script
    base_domain = is the Domain name
    weblogic= Admin UserName
    weblogic= Admin Password
    t3://localhost:7001 = Is the Admin Server URL
    How to run the above script:
    Before running the above WLST please run the "setWLSEnv.sh"/ "setWLSEnv.cmd". Then
    java weblogic.WLST /app/myScriptLocations/ChangeEnforceValidBasicAuthCredentials.py.
    Thanks

  • What's the sort order for podcasts on the shuffle?

    Hi all... Can someone tell me how the iPod Shuffle orders podcasts? I've seen MANY posts saying there's no way to manually sort podcasts on the shuffle (which is crazy IMO), but at least if I know how it's ordering the podcasts that'll help me identify which one is next.
    I added 15 podcasts to the shuffle, and sorting by every category I can find none that matches the order the shuffle places the podcasts in.
    So first question -- what order are the podcasts stored in?
    And second question -- Why the heck did Apple do this? Why can't podcasts just be treated like standard MP3 songs?
    And finally if there's no answer to either of these, is there anyway to get ipodderx to sync to the ipod shuffle? I love itunes, but if it's going to hender my hardware I'll switch to something else.
    Thanks for any help on this, and take care --

    Hi Dean,
    I'm wondering if something's wrong with my podcast, because that's not what happens on mine. For example I have my podcasts in this order:
    NPR Technology
    Haunted New Jersey
    Autumn in New England
    Hometown Tales Podcast
    And even after selecting File then Update iPod and even right-clicking on ipod and selecting Copy to Play Order the order of the podcasts are :
    Haunted New Jersey
    Hometown Tales Podcast
    NPR Technology
    Hometown Tale Podcast
    Nothing I've done sorts the podcasts as they should be sort. Also i set it to not show the ipod unless it's connected, and when I sort the podcasts as I want, Update ipod, and plug ipod, plugging it back in shows the wacky sort order they're stored on the ipod. I can rearrange again, update again, eject and plug back in, and the crazy sort order (not mine) is back.
    Is there something I'm missing????

  • Is there a way to post an image to the Medical ID other than via the photo on my contact card, e.g. a QR Code?

    Apple's Medical ID is handy because it can be shown in front of the lock screen.   But it would be very helpful to allow the pasting of images like a QR code so other people looking at the Medical ID could scan that code and be directed to a website that might contain other information I would like to share.   Any way to do this?    The fields appear to accept text only.   Is there some other way to do this with fonts?

    I should have explained the use case:
    Imagine a paramedic or emergency room clinician needing fast access to this information.   Typing a URL is prone to error in this case, while scanning a QR code isn't, wouldn't you agree?   

  • Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

    is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
    We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
    Any ideas?

    I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

  • Primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    You are welcome.
    Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:

  • Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered

    Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered?
    Please help! Thanks for reading:)

    Hello Damien,
    There is an option to set a passcode for the entire iPhone.  You can use the following steps to set this up:
    You can configure a passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using Settings > General > Passcode Lock.
    Once enabled, you will be prompted for the passcode whenever you:
    Turn on or restart the device
    Wake the device
    Unlock the screen
    Note: You can specify the amount of time the screen must be locked before requiring a passcode.
    You can find the full article here:

  • Is there any way to set the height of choice list or list of values?

    Hello Everyone,
    (Jdeveloper: 11.1.2.1.0)
    I recently created a page with some fields as choice lists and some as list of values. Somehow the choice list when opened it is not displaying data properly (I have 3 rows, it is showing only 2 rows and have to scroll to see third row) . I would like to see if there is any way to set this so that I can see all three rows or set the height of choice list as a fixed height?
