Hi Pete, thanks for the answer. I do not fully unterstand how to do what you suggested. What I am doing is: Conversational SFSB | @DataModel | private List<Mitarbeiter> mitarbeiters; | ... | | @Factory(value = "mitarbeiters") | public void getMitarbeiterList() { | Criteria c = ((HibernateSessionProxy) entityManager.getDelegate()) | .createCriteria(Mitarbeiter.class); | c.addOrder(Order.desc("nachname")); | mitarbeiters = c.list(); | } | and in my template: | <tr:table width="290px" value="#{mitarbeiters}" var="mitarbeiter" rows="5" styleClass="trTableDiv"> | <tr:column sortable="true" sortProperty="login"> | <f:facet name="header">Login</f:facet> | <s:link value="#{mitarbeiter.login}" propagation="new" | action="#{mitarbeiterMgr.selectMitarbeiter}"> | <f:param name="mitarbeiterId" value="#{mitarbeiter.id}" /> | </s:link> | </tr:column> | ... | </tr:table> | After clicking the link the same page loads again with the details of mitarbeiter, but the sort order of the table is gone. Ho do I access the EntityQuery or place the Criteria in another scope? Alexander View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4119702#...
