Posted on by Voltes 596
Hi guys,
 
In my custom form - data source, I have specified the /Start position/ to be Last ->
 
But when I open this form, it won't show from the last record (newest) ->
 
May I know how to make the display as I wanted to ?
Thanks

    Hi Voltes,
     
    Start position property determines whether to keep the cursor in first or last record as a current record. Which means it will set the cursor to last record if you set as Last. If you set its as First, it will move the cursor to first record.
    If you want to display the latest record first, you need to add the code on the executeQuery method of the DataSource.
    Refer to the below code.
    DataSourceName_ds.queryBuildDataSource().addSortField(fieldNum(TableName, RecId),SortOrder::Descending);
     
    Thanks,
    Girish S.
