alphabetizing reports

S

sally

hi,

i've been generating a report from forms, which have a
switch box, and certain records checked; the forms are
alphabetical; the report contains the checked records, but
in random order; i'd like the report to be alphabetical as
well; any suggestions?

thanx,

sally

Reports (for the most part) ignore any sorting that might be in the underlying
DataSet. You need to use the Sorting and Grouping tool in the Report's design
view to set the desired sorting.
