Is there a way via the interface to sort items on multiple columns (like an ORDER by in a SQL statement) and have the grid view update to show that combined order?

Thanks

When you talk about "sort items" are you talking selecting one column for Ascending and another for Descending?

  Fred That was the idea. Like you can do In SQL in an ORDER BY...
  
  Thanks Fred.

Sadly, Ninox can only sort columns one at a time in table view. You can create a new field that combines other fields that would allow you to sort by multiple fields, but not multiple columns.

  RoSoft_Steven Rooryck Not exactly, but I wanted to ask if you can create separate form views for the same table -- each with different fields and placements. Every time I try to do it, I seem to be removing a field from the main table. I don't seem to understand how to do this basic operation.

  Mike Only one form for each table. But,...
  
  If you make different Tab elements in your form, you can kinda create different formlayouts per Tab, each containing their own fields. If you want duplicate fields in tabs, you must use formula fields. You can even hide a tabelement for certain users. Or use a Dashboard to jump to the correct tab.
  
  Hope this helps.
