SORT-NUMBER attribute

Indicates the sort-level number for a browse column.
Data type: INTEGER
Access: Readable/Writeable
Applies to: BROWSE widget (column)
Valid values are 1 through 9, inclusive, and the Unknown value (?). If the column is not sorted, returns the Unknown value (?).
Note: Setting a sort-arrow indicator and sort-level number on a column does not change the column's sort order or the browse's query. The browse's query is responsible for actually sorting the data.
