Vault Explorer Filter by Checkout

[Anonymous]

Is there any way to filter or group the checkout column in Vault 4 Explorer? I realize I could do a search for files checked out to me, but I only want to do it for one folder at a time. Also it seems strange that the "allow filtering" is selectable on that column but I cannot do anything with it. I also cannot drag it into the header to group by checkout / checkin status, so I cannot see files checked out to me, someone else, or not at all by groups and then be able to sort by a secondary field.

Add the Checked Out By column to Vault Explorer
Right-click on the column and select Allow Filter.
An arrow will appear next the the column name.
Press it and you will see a drop-down list appear with different values and
an option from Custom Filters.

You can also right-click on the field name and select Group By This Field.

I guess I should have read you post a little more before answering it! LOL
So, lets try this again. Do you know what permissions you have inside of
the Vault?
Do you have Vault SP2 installed on the server and you client computers?
Does your computer account have local Administrative priviledges?

I have administrator rights on my computer as well as the vault. SP2 is installed on my Vault client, but I'm not sure if it's installed on the server. I'll have to check with our IT dept on that one.

The drop down arrow does not appear on the checkout status column, and when I right click to select group by field, it is grayed out. However, I did notice that you can sort by one column, then shift click and sort by a secondary column.
