    Hi,
    Yes I agree, RFE 97592 should solve my problem too. It is the same as my problem.
    I've voted for it.

    Hi Michael,

    Please review RFE https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=97592

    Title is:
    'Allow reports to be sorted differently than the columns are displayed (ie. display = C1,C2,C3 sort order C3,C1,C2)'

    I believe a solution to that the request would also cover your situation. If you agree, please vote on that one and we can track this request under that RFE.
