SYMPTOMS
When creating a new view for a folder, Exchange will not allow you to
create a Sort By criteria on a column already defined in the Group By
dialog box. Attempting to do so returns the following error:
The grouping you specified is not valid. You cannot sort on a property
that you are using to group by.
Completely removing the column that is currently defined by a valid Sort By
criteria causes the Sort By dialog box to be populated with another column
defined in your Group By dialog box. This, in effect, contradicts the
previous error message because it defines a Sort By property that you are
using to group by. No error message is returned.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Exchange
version 4.0 Windows 3.x, Windows 95, and Windows NT clients. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
