Morning all,

Has anyone found a 'nice' way round this issue on a paging grid in Appian 7.8:

The dataset is expression backed via a webservice and often contains data that has a mix of 1 type (e.g. Boolean) and nulls.

When attempting to sort on the field an error is generated:

"The sort field must be a consistent type. Found two different types: 26 and 3, for sort expression <name>"
Type 26 = Boolean
Type 3 = Null.

Formatting the data in the a!textGridColumn has no effect as the sort is performed using the raw data from the expression, and we would like to avoid having to convert everything to text in the webservice and then back to the required dataType

Thanks in advance,

Gareth
