Thanks Jeff and Julio. Funny, I thought I’d double-checked case, but apparently not well enough! As soon as I changed it from “orderby” to “orderBy” it started working.
BTW, I finally turned on object notation in my database and have started using object notation as well as collections directly inside my code. So so nice! Easy to read and use and I’m finding I use a lot less local variables as well. I can’t wait until they get the AST working so the method editor can do checking and better type-ahead as I go! -- Cannon.Smith Synergy Farm Solutions Inc.

Hopefully that will be fixed soon. ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **********************************************************************
