How to sort a TEXT Date Column ?
Hi,
I have data :- 31-May-07
Its in a calculated column of the list. The method I used to get it :-
=IF(FDate="","",TEXT(FDate,"dd-mmm-yy")) {FDate is a DateTime type of column. The returned value is stored in a "Single Line of Text" column type.}
I am now unable to sort that column as its Text now and sorting is done on basis of strings.
I need to sort this column on basis of Date.
Any help ?
Thanks!!

Hi,
I can reproduce your issue, this is by design.
Even though I create calculated column with date type, it also can’t be sorted by date.
Hope this helps
Thanks!
