Ivan,

 I do apologize has I did not completely put everything in the code that needs to happen in order for this to work. Please find below the complete steps outlining how to to default from largest to smallest (WebLink 9 only).

1. Open up the "web.config" file and find the following section:

<compilation defaultLanguage="c#" debug="true" targetFramework="4.5" />

2. Change this section to the following:

<compilation defaultLanguage="c#" debug="true" targetFramework="4.5">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="Interop.LFSO92Lib, Version=9.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=607dd73ee2bd1c00"/>
</assemblies>
</compilation>

3. Save

4. Open up the "Browse.aspx" file and find the following <weblink:documentbrowser> control code (set variables may differ):

<weblink:documentbrowser id="TheDocumentBrowser" runat="server" Height="100%" width="100%" MaxLength="25" OpenFoldersInPlace="False" ShowDownloadEdocButton="False"></weblink:documentbrowser>

5. Add the "DefaultSortDirection" variable to it and give it the value of  "<%#LFSO92Lib.Sort_Direction.SORT_DIRECTION_ASC%>".

<weblink:documentbrowser id="TheDocumentBrowser" runat="server" Height="100%" width="100%" MaxLength="25" OpenFoldersInPlace="False" ShowDownloadEdocButton="False" DefaultSortDirection=<%#LFSO92Lib.Sort_Direction.SORT_DIRECTION_ASC%>></weblink:documentbrowser>

6. At the bottom of "browse.aspx" add the following code after the closing </html> tag:

<script language="vbscript" runat="server">
    Public Sub Page_PreInit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.PreInit
       Me.ViewState("DefaultSortDirection") = LFSO92Lib.Sort_Direction.SORT_DIRECTION_ASC
       TheDocumentBrowser.DefaultSortDirection = LFSO92Lib.Sort_Direction.SORT_DIRECTION_DESC
    End Sub
</script>

7. Save

Now you may be scratching your head as to how this can possibly work when the values for the Sort_Direction are different in the PreInit routine. I believe there may be a bug going on behind the scenes as this code structure was the only way I could get the document browser to sort descending on the first initial launch and then persist that sorting on every subsequent request. It's bizarre but it works.

Hope this helps!
