Hi Praveen,
You could add the items to the drop down list in a sorted order, which would involve loading the items into an array, sorting them and then loading them into the drop down list. So this would be in the click event of the add button.
// Create an array to hold all out drop down list items, the array contains objects with a "displayItem" and "value" property
var dropDownItems = [];
// Add the new one
dropDownItems.push({displayItem: ItemName.rawValue, value: BoundValue.rawValue});
// Add the existing ones
for (var i = 0; i < DropDownList1.length; i++)
{
dropDownItems.push({displayItem: DropDownList1.getDisplayItem(i), value: DropDownList1.getSaveItem(i)})
}
// Sort ascending order of the display text
dropDownItems.sort(
function(a, b)
{
if (a.displayItem < b.displayItem) return -1;
if (a.displayItem > b.displayItem) return 1;
return 0;
});
// clear all items
DropDownList1.clearItems();
// load up the sorted items
for (var i = 0; i < dropDownItems.length; i++)
{
var dropDownItem = dropDownItems[i];
DropDownList1.addItem(dropDownItem.displayItem, dropDownItem.value);
}
// clear source fields
ItemName.rawValue = null;
BoundValue.rawValue = null;
I've added a "Add Sorted" button to my sample, https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=OwysfJa-Q3HhPtFlgRb62g
