Sorting Issue in a repeating grid column Age, Column type as Varchar2 in DB
Hi,
I have a property Age as VarChar2 in Database, we are using a RD to fetch records from DB and showing it on a Repeating Grid UI.
Now the Age is not sorting properly if Age<10 i.e. if there are Ages 1,5,10,20,40,60,45 and i would like to sort them in Ascending order it may show as below
10, 20, 5,40,60,1,45
I know the solution that we can modify the DB column type to Number and it should fix the issue but i want to know of any alternative approach wherein i can make modifications in the RD which resolves the sorting issue.
I read some other articles as well but didn't understood how to use them in my case eg:- https://pdn.pega.com/community/product-support/question/sorting-after-first-character
This is kind of urgent if anyone knows any other approach then please reply.
Thank you
