# init(_:sortUsing:content:)

Creates a sortable column with text label.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated init(_ text: Text, sortUsing comparator: Sort, @ContentBuilder content: @escaping (RowValue) -> Content)
```

## Parameters

- `text`: The column’s label.
- `comparator`: The prototype sort comparator to use when representing this column. When a person taps or clicks the column header, the containing table’s sortOrder incorporates this value, potentially with a flipped order.
- `content`: The view content to display for each row in a table.

## Discussion

Discussion This initializer creates a Text view for you, and treats the title similar to init(_:). For more information about localizing strings, see Text.
