New Post: Sorting on xmldata fields

Here is how we patched it in case others have a similar need. We chose to 'filter' it on a particular portalid, I guess there might be better ways.

  begin
if @PortalID <> 3
    begin
        if @OrderDESC=1
              set @SQL = @SQL + ' order by PL.ProductName DESC,PL.Manufacturer DESC'
        else
              set @SQL = @SQL + ' order by PL.ProductName,PL.Manufacturer'  
    end
else
  begin
    set @SQL = @SQL + ' order by [XMLData].value(''(/genxml/textbox/range)[1]'',''nvarchar(120)'')'
  end

        if @OrderDESC=1
              set @SQL = @SQL + ' order by PL.ProductName DESC,PL.Manufacturer DESC'
        else
              set @SQL = @SQL + ' order by PL.ProductName,PL.Manufacturer'
  end
