Hi Gary,
To answer the first question, you need to set paging.
On the XMod module go to the edit menu >> Configure XMod module >> Manage Templates >> Select your Business Directory List View template >> Choos editor = Plain text >> Edit Template
On Edit Template select the Item Settings tab. Configure the settings as shown in the image below:

Optionally, you can check the box Display Page Number Buttons if you also want paging numbers to be available to your visitors.
Finally, Save Template and click Done.
In answer to your second question, on the Configure Your XMod >> Display Settings tab you have Default sorting option. This will sort the list either acending or descending based on which form field you choose from the Form Field dropdown box.
THe User Sorting area below this option allows User Sort Options. This creates the dropdown sort box on your search bar. Here you can select multiple fields that you want your visitors to have the option to sort by.
Gary, I would need to see the site and have login credentials to see what is going on with your sort configuration.
If you want to send the site URL and Admin login to support@dnnprofessor.com, I should have time to look at it this afternoon.
