Just tested this with bookstore/test/testBOOKSList.jsp:
<db:dbform
multipart="false"
autoUpdate="false"
followUp="/tests/testBOOKSList.jsp"
maxRows="*"
tableName="BOOK"
orderBy="ISBN DESC"
>
[SELECT BOOK_ID, ISBN, AUTHOR_ID, TITLE FROM BOOK ORDER BY ISBN DESC]
So in bookstore example it works as you expected.
Also subforms are working:
<db:dbform
autoUpdate="false"
followUp="/tests/testAuthorBooksSubForm.jsp"
maxRows="*"
tableName="BOOK"
parentField="AUTHOR_ID"
childField="AUTHOR_ID"
orderBy="ISBN DESC"
>
[SELECT BOOK_ID, ISBN, AUTHOR_ID, TITLE FROM BOOK WHERE ( ( ( AUTHOR_ID = ? ) )
) ORDER BY ISBN DESC]
