One of our clients wants the dropdown list values sorted alphabetically is there a way of sorting this values. Currently the list just displays the values in the order you type them in, the problem is my client is going to be adding and removing some of the values and wants that list to be always sorted. HELP
hi guys, found a solution to this had to use jquery to sort the values so at least the users see them sorted but this only works for the front end which was sort of ok with my client as he was more woried about the front end.
Does anyone know of a better way to do this? I'm adding some values to a couple of really long dropdowns and was hoping there was an easy way to sort them. We can go the JQuery route, but I would prefer to maintain the order in Contour.

Hey currently it's not possible to sort so they'll have to update the current caption... Are there a lot of values?
hi tim,
thanks for the reply and unfortunately there is quite a few values currently at least 40 with the list looking to increase
