Dim instance As DataManipulator Dim order As PointsSortOrder Dim sortBy As String Dim seriesName As String   instance.Sort(order, sortBy, seriesName)

public void Sort( 
   PointsSortOrder order,
   string sortBy,
   string seriesName
)

Parameters

order

A PointsSortOrder enumeration value that determines if the sort is ascending or descending.
Sorting order.

sortBy

A string value that represents the data point values to be sorted. Possible values are: "X", "Y", "Y2", "Y3", "AxisLabel", etc. 

Note:  If X-values are of type string, they are stored in the AxisLabel,  this should be specified instead of "X".

Value to sort by.

seriesName

The name(s) of the series to sort. For multiple series use a comma-separated list.
Comma separated sereies names to sort.

This method performs an ascending or descending sort on a series' data points, and is based on the value that is set by the sortBy parameter (e.g. "X", "AxisLabel", "Y", "Y1", etc.) .

Note that if multiple series are sorted then the series must be aligned, otherwise an exception will be thrown. Refer to the Aligning Series topic for information on aligned series.

IMPORTANT: ALL series will be sorted using the specified Y-value from the FIRST listed series (i.e. all data points, regardless of the series they belong to, are sorted based on the first series).

To sort points using a custom sort routine use another definition of this overloaded method.
