Hi,

I want to sort the values in the form which is used as a lookup. I have written code in the init() method of a form. The sorting is working fine when the Batch number value is blank. But the problem is once the Form string control is selected with a value if I click on the control, the dropdown is not sorted. Refer to the screenshot below. I have written code to sort with the Manufacturing date. But it is not sorting. I debugged the code and the query is sorting as per the Manufacturing date but when look into the dropdown it is not working. I need your assistance in this. Thanks in advance.

Thanks & Regards,

Ramkumar
