Description | Use the dateTime keyword when sorting by a field or portion of a container that is a date or time. Alphabetical sorting does not take the special format of dates and times into account. For example, a normal sort places 11:30 AM after 2:00 AM, because 2 is greater than 1. The dateTime keyword recognizes all LiveCode's date and time formats and sorts them in time order, rather than alphabetical or numeric order. |
