[CLOSED] Date Time value not sorting as a numeric value in Excel.
Hi, I'm working with DevStudio 7703. I have developed a Excel report for a customer but when they go to sort the DateTime field it wants to sort from "A to Z". I need it to sort from "oldest to newest" or "newest to oldest". I've tried several different formats (i.e HYYMDSA, HMDYIB and it's stored as HYYMDs) but none of these are being interpreted as numeric when the customer tries sorting in Excel. Many thanks in advance if your able to assist.
