This example extends Sorting List Views 1 by adding a second list view titled "SELECTLIST Employee Order" which is refilled every time a button titled "Show SELECTLIST Order" is clicked. It demonstrates that the order of the items in the list view remains constant (ie: in the order the items were added by the ADD_ENTRY command) regardless of how the user has sorted visual representation of the list
To see how the example works, copy this code and paste it to a form component:
