Order of appearance in report

I have a list with 20 items.
When a make a report the are shown in another order: 6-20 followed by 1-5.
Why is that? What can I do to fix this problem?

This is probably the order you inserted records in... Set the order on your
reports recordsource...

Open the report in design view.

Open the Sorting and Grouping box (View menu).

Specify the field(s) you wish to sort by - one per line.

Reports sort/group independently of any sorting/grouping your query does.
In your report's design mode, select Sort/Group and set accordingly.

Good luck
