Sort a table by 2 date columns

Hi all, 

 

I have a table in a report which needs to be sorted by a date column (Revised Date) and if that column is empty then the table needs to be sorted by another date column (Planned Date).

Do you know of a way to do this?

 

Thank you!

Ioana

Hi,

Sort the two Date Columns in the sort order you specified and them add them to your table. Adding them to the table before sorting them and then sorting afterwords would not help.
