Sort edit tables (OpenInsight 32-Bit)

The new display item in the UI Popup feature that changes the column header to display the sort direction is cool. I have replicated it in my own edittable sort routine, with the exception of the DESCENDING indicator character. Ascending is easy (^). How do you do the other way? (ie. a down caret?)

Lower-case V perhaps?

I have repeatedly pointed out that most (if not all) in-built OI sort facilities (such as SORTEDCOL) do the sorting on the display values without any options to sort on data values.
In many cases there are no problems - but with dates !!!!!!!

Richard-
This has been working since version 7.0.
What version are you running?

I have duplicated this as well, and it definitely looks like OI is using a lower-case "v" for the descending sort indicator.

Thanks, Mike.
I'm running 7.1.0. I'll check this out but cannot use it until I've got all my clients upgraded to the appropriate version.
I don't recollect seeing any notification of this change/fix in any upgrade notes. If there was, I apologise for not reading them carefully enough.
Unless I see some notification that something has been fixed, I assume it hasn't - otherwise I'd spend ages checking out every upgrade. That's why it's so useful for us to have the most complete information possible on everything that's been improved and cured in each upgrade.
Also, can I ask that in the Readme for each upgrade you ensure you say what versions it can be applied to (as you always used to).
