Author Has these been already signalled? [set order to TAG]

It's about the DESCENDING() status of an order and the SET ORDER
TO TagXX command.
In VFP6, if the table was ordered with the same tag TagXX and the
order was DESCENDING(), issuing "set order to TagXX" left the
table order descending.
In VFP8, even if the table is already ordered on TagXX and it's
descending, issuing "set order to TagXX" makes the table order
lose the descending().
Just noted it today. Anyone else?

I don't remember. But when doing such things in code, I look at DESCENDING()
first, so that I know what the situation is.

You can also SET ORDER TO blahblah ASCENDING.
