Sorting a list by country is not working was created by danpoole

Hi, I have setup a CB Field for countries called 'cb_countryinfo', I did this from a tutorial or forum thread, I'm not really sure but the field works fine.

No I have a list that need to be sorted by country, so in the Lists I have it sorting by 'cb_countryinfo' Ascending

The problem is that it is not sorting by country, it is like it is sorting by some sort of ID???

Your screenshots do not appear to be working. It'll sort by whatever value is stored in the database. Not by whatever label the user sees. So for example United States of America could be stored as just usa so it'd be sorting on usa. Check your _comprofiler table and see what values are stored or review your country field usage to see what values you have set for its options.
