Thanks everyone in advance for the assistance.
I created two lists under List Management, they are "sort A-Z" and "sort Z-A." The first A-Z is set as default.
On the website I would click on the upper right drop down menu and select Z-A, the list will automatically sort as intended. However, because there are many row entries, I limit to 20 showings at a time so I'll have to click next page to see the rest. When I click to the next page, it reverts by to the default A-Z.
Does anyone know how to correct this?
