[support] Views Sorting Trouble

[Michelle Ziegmann]

Ryan,

I believe the answer is that you first need to add a relationship to 
Academic Division, which will make the node title of the division node 
available for sorting.  To do this:
1. Add relationship, choose the CCK field for the nodereference to the 
Academic Division
2. Add a sort criteria of Node Title, and choose the relationship you 
just created in the settings for this.
3. Re-order sort criteria so that Node Title with the relationship is 
first, followed by Node Title with no relationship.

Hope that helps!
