Sort tables by numeric primary key

Add columns to sorting

When you click the column name, the column data is sorted. The column sorting is not stacked by default. It means that if you click a column name to sort data by, the sorting based on other columns will be cleared. If you prefer to use the stacked sorting, click a column name while pressing Alt.
