Why I don't have 'Bind Sort Control' option in Crystal subreport ?

Question

Hello !

I have a report and two subreports. In the subreports I used Sort Record Expert for defining the column that I want to sort the subreport. I would like to have a sort control, but I don't have the option 'Bind Sort Control'.

Could someone be kind and explain me how to create the sort control in the subreport, if possible. Maybe I am missing something...

Thank you very much !

As PowerUser says, I don't think you can do that in Crystal. The closest you could come would be to have a parameter to select sort item, but that would require re-running the report each time yu wanted to re-sort it.

Alternatively, the output could be exported to Excel and then manipulated in Excel. (However, Crystal's Excel export isn't very good.)
