Paradox table, sorting on calculated field

I use delphi and a paradox table with some calculated fields.

Normally i sort a table by setting a different indexname for the table.

Is this also possible for a calculated field? (Obviously I can not make an
index in the database desktop)

Can i make an index for a calculated field at runtime or is there another
way to sort a table on a calculated field?

thanks

Re:Paradox table, sorting on calculated field

No, you cannot index or sort on a calculate field unless you use a
TClientDataSet for your data access and editing.
