I am using the "dgNumberOfRecords" mechanism to populate a grid. Everything works as expected.
except .....I need the last (new) element to show up first and the first element to show up last. this is normally achieved by sorting the column, but I cannot sort using the "large dataset method". I really don't want to rewrite the array to reverse the sequence every time a new record is added..... that will degrade performance as time goes on big time......which is the very reason why i used this method for populating the grid in the first place..... this grid can have 10,000 items in it after a months use. the other problem is that elements can also be deleted from the array so the array indexes are not always perfectly sequential hmmm.... any ideas are welcome. thank you. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
