Hi Héctor.
The manual says that "The sorting is always done in ascending
order". Since I need a report sorted by quantity in a descending
order, I thought that storing the quantity multiplied by (-1) will do
the trick, but even though the quantity is stored with a negative sign
the sorted output ignores the negative sign, as if it only pays
attention to the absolute value, so the output is basically the
opposite of the desired one.
Is there any way to get the output in a descending order?
Not using recfix. That's something I want to implement, because it is a
rather silly limitation.
