This isn't a Crystal request, per se, but one for the Universe Designer.  I'd like to see Lists of Values automatically set up to sort ascending when they're created. 
 
Right now, they're created with no sort so you have to go to each one and set the sort on it.  This gets really tedious when you have a lot of them.  If they were set to sort when created, the all you'd have to do is modify the ones that need to be sorted differently.

In Designer, there is an option to Forced sort the list of values (FORCE_SORTED_LOV) in the parameters tab of the Universe Parameters dialogue box. Default value is no. Just update it to Yes and it will sort all of your LOVs.
