Servoy 4.1.3  
Windows XP pro SP3  
JRE 1.6.0-14

In my valuelists by “Database Values → All Values From” a table, the “Sorting Definition…” options doesn’t work. I have defined two fields for “Show in fileld/list” as non related column and the first shall “Return in dataprovider”. The “Sort option” is the second field (non related column) as sort asc. But always the first field definition is sorted… Of course, I tried other tables, columns and sort options, but the “Sort option” function by Valuelists will be ignored.  
Any suggestion and help welcome.

Thomas
