asked on
sort, but not as desired
Sort fine, but in my stringgrid i've got even empty spaces. When I sort the stringgrid the empty rows become before the data from my text.
ex:
a a a a a
b b b b b
'' '' '' '' ''
''-empty cell.....means that i've got an empty row.
after sort... the empty row is the first as normaly...but how can I prevent that and put the empty spaces last?
Thanks.
