Das hier stammt nicht von mir aber damit kannst du an the fly eine DC sortieren
Since getting having an unsorted DocumentCollection is generally a pain, I've
written some code that's pretty quick in sorting these documents on the fly.
This uses a QuickSort algorithm, instead of the much slower bubble sorts that
seem to be floating out here...
I actually borrowed the CollectionToArray code from this board a while back,
but it also used a bubble sort routine that was way too slow.
This code should be able to be used as is. I've used this method in several
DB's with no changes since the initial write. The only thing you should have
to change is the variable which tells it which field to sort on (explained
below)...
Sub CollectionToArray ( dc As NotesDocumentCollection)
Dim doc As NotesDocument
Dim k As Long
k = dc.Count
If k<>0 Then
Redim da( 1 To k+1) As NotesDocument
Set doc = dc.GetFirstDocument
For i=1 To k
Set da(i) = doc
Set doc = dc.GetNextDocument(doc)
Next
End If
'Need to add a value at the end that will always be greater than all
other values
Set da(k+1) = dirDB.CreateDocument
da(k+1).Lastname = "ZZZZZZZZ"
End Sub
Function swap(i As Integer,j As Integer) As Variant
Dim temp As NotesDocument
Set temp = da(i)
Set da(i) = da(j)
Set da(j) = temp
End Function
Sub QuickSort (leftpos As Integer, rightpos As Integer)
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim pivot As String
If (leftpos < rightpos) Then
i=leftpos
j=rightpos + 1
pivot = da(leftpos).GetFirstItem(key).Text
Do
Do
i=i+1
Loop While da(i).GetFirstItem(key).Text<pivot And
i<=rightpos
Do
j=j-1
Loop While da(j).GetFirstItem(key).Text > pivot And
j>=leftpos
If (i<j) Then
Call swap(i, j)
End If
Loop While (i<j)
Call swap(leftpos,j)
Call QuickSort(leftpos,j-1)
Call QuickSort(j+1,rightpos)
End If
End Sub
These need to be public variables, so place them in your "Declarations":
Dim s As NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase 'The current database
Dim da As Variant
Const key = "LastName" 'This the name of the FIELD you want to sort on
Now, how to use this stuff...
In your Initialize, or wherever you're calling this from:
1) Get your DocumentCollection (here: dc)
2) Call CollectionToArray(dc) 'just creates an array of your documents so that
we can re-order them
3) Call QuickSort(Lbound(da), Ubound(da)-1) 'actually sorts your documents
4) Redim Preserve da( 1 To Ubound(da)-1) As NotesDocument 'just chops off the
'ZZZZZ' value we needed as a 'high' value (see CollectionToArray routine)
5) Forall doc In da ... End ForAll 'Use this to loop through your sorted
documents
Remember, the DocumentArray (da) is just an array of documents, so you can
reference the 'doc' in your ForAll and any of it's properties, fields, etc.
just like any other document.
Let me know if you have any problems, or just to let me know you found this
useful...

Anpassung:
Replace the
For i=1 To k
Set da(i) = dc.GetNthDocument(i)
Next
with the appropriate GetNextDocument() code instead for some addtl. speed.
GetNthDocument is much slower than GetNextDocument....
