Returns a value indicating whether the elements of a control are automatically sorted alphabetically.
object.Sorted
The object placeholder represents an object expression that evaluates to an object.
The Sorted property return values are described in the following table.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| True | List items are sorted by character code order. |
| False | (Default). List items aren't sorted alphabetically. |
When this property is True, Visual Basic handles almost all necessary string processing to maintain alphabetic order, including changing the index numbers for items as required by the addition or removal of items.
Note Using the AddItem method to add an element to a specific location in the list may violate the sort order, and subsequent additions may not be correctly sorted.
