You can change the config option:
xsortcategories

to the column name that you want to sort by.

we use "catextra" and populate that with the relevant ordering text string.

note that as it's a text field and not a number field, "100" will come before "2" so you'd need to do it like:
"001-000"
"001-001"
"002-000"
"002-001"
etc

Hi there,

Are you using 6.08? If not open shopproductsubs.asp and locate all references to:

catSQL=catsql & " order by catdescription"

Change to:

'VP-ASP 6.08 - Order by config option rather than hardcoded
catSQL=catsql & " order by " & getconfig("xsortcategories")
' catSQL=catsql & " order by catdescription"

This should allow you to sort your left column links.

Thanks,
Cam
