Field Value

Type	Description
String	The “SortColumnDescending” string.

Remarks

Specify the ContextMenus property to display context menus for the following TreeList elements:

Sort Descending is a TreeList context menu item that sorts the target column in descending order. This item is available in a header context menu only if sorting is enabled at both TreeList and column levels. The item is disabled when the target column is already sorted in descending order.

Use the SortColumnDescending field to apply the following customizations:

• Access and customize the Sort Descending item
• Add this item to a context menu
• Remove the item from the header context menu

Example

The following code snippet removes the Sort Column Descending command from the context menu associated with the Due Date column:
