Still having problems.  In Store A, some items show aisle numbers, others don't although they're all entered the same way (i.e., multiple stores with aisle numbers for each store entered separately).  Also Sort is set by aisle but is not sorting by aisle.  Tried turning per-store prices and aisles on and off.  When it's off, the aisle numbers show up for Store A but the Sort still isn't working.  Running on a Sprint Mogul with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.
