Remarks

The order in which the fields appear is the order in which the fields are sorted. The value of the Ascending attribute in the FieldRef element determines whether to sort in ascending order.

Example

The following example sorts the fields first in ascending order by the Newcomers field, then in descending order by Years, and finally in ascending order by Location.

<OrderBy>
  <FieldRef Name="Newcomers"/>
  <FieldRef Name="Years" Ascending="FALSE"/>
  <FieldRef Name="Location"/>
</OrderBy>
