You get this ranking by *not* specifying any particular field to sort on (because if you tell it to sort by NEWITEM, you are forcing that to be the sort field, which undoes the nice ranking). The default ranking puts records at the top of the list that have more field matches, which in your case puts NEWITEM=YES above all others, followed by records that do not have NEWITEM=YES.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:

You get this ranking by *not* specifying any particular field to sort on (because if you tell it to sort by NEWITEM, you are forcing that to be the sort field, which undoes the nice ranking). The default ranking puts records at the top of the list that have more field matches, which in your case puts NEWITEM=YES above all others, followed by records that do not have NEWITEM=YES.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/ PCS Technical Support
