Not sure if there’s any new features to allow you to do this in a better way, but what I used to do was:
Have a view with “Default Design” checked, which contains columns sorted in the correct way
Do the actual search in lotusscript in an agent - db.ftsearch will return a documentcollection.
use dc.putAllInFolder(xxxxx, true) where xxxxx is a temporary name (@Unique for example). The true will force domino to create a new folder, which will inherit it’s design from the view in (1), and then the docs are put in it.
The LS Agent then redirects the user to this new folder which contains their search results in a sortable manner.
You need to make sure that you clean up the folders at some point, and also, you can only present search results in one format, as there can only be one default design view.
One other option is to try to build the folder in lotus script, creating the required columns as you go, but you might hit other problems here (for example, you can’t select a column to be totalled in LS)
