will be sorted by a form field you choose
(usually the title field).

SHOW.5PM.SCRIPTS queue:
dbtraits show.5pm.scripts +so
Update
SRPlo-LIsUGQSXWFiT

+u|-u
Indicates whether or not stories in a queue will
be replaced as new versions are moved or
copied to it.
To indicate that stories in
SHOW.5PM.SCRIPTS should be replaced as
new versions are moved or copied to it:
dbtraits show.5pm.scripts +u
The update trait does not affect stories that are
restored from tape. If you restore a story to a
queue that already contains a version of that
story, you will have two versions of the same
story, even if the queue’s update trait is on.
General
SRPlo-LIsUGQSXWFiT
----------G-------
+g|-g
Indicates whether or not stories in a queue
should retain their security restrictions when
they are moved to another queue.
For instance, access to stories in the Dead queue
would normally be unrestricted. To prevent
people from opening restricted stories once they
are moved to the Dead queue, type:
dbtraits dead +g
Queue
Operations
Allowed
SRPlo-LIsUGQSXWFiT
-----------Q------
+q|-q
Indicates whether or not the kill, move, or
duplicate operations can be performed against
an entire queue.
Setting the trait “off” for a particular queue does
not affect the ability of people to kill, move, or
duplicate individual stories in the queue, as long
as they have appropriate permissions.
To allow users to kill, move, or duplicate the
entire SHOW.5PM.SCRIPTS queue, type:
dbtraits show.5pm.scripts +q
