I guess you mean a list view where each line is a record and the fields
are arranged in vertical columns.
Assigning a script to such a column (by attaching it to a button in this
column) isn't very useful in general, since the script wouldn't know in
which column the button is, unless you specify that in the script.
You might get more help if you tell us what it is you want to
accomplish.

Simple example:

Go to layout[where you are already]
Sort records [Restore, no dialog] --specify the column.


In the layout, create a row of text fields that head each column.
Make the heading of the column a button that calls the script. Then
users can sort the column by clicking on the name.
