From any IOF panel, enter the NEWcommand; select 7J; then select SORT to see a description of the 7J changes.

Prior releases of IOF supported initial sorts, as specified on the option menus, and field sorts on individual panels. Initial sorts were saved in the user's profile, but field sorts were not saved. Release 7J allows up to four field sorts and saves the lates field sort for each panel in the user's profile.

SORT certainly works differently in release 7J, but we believe that it works much better.

To remove an initial sort value from the user's profile, clear the field on the option menu and enter "SAVEPROF" in the COMMAND area.

Entering the SORT command with no parms on a release 7J panel causes a SORT assist panel to be displayed. The most common sorts for each panel are displayed and can be selected from a menu.
