sorting the values in the combo box

Hello all,

I am trying to sort a list of records in the combo box in
alphabetical order. The information that is being store
in the combo box is coming from another application (not
from the tables in the current DB). The combo box
containing 3 columns, and I would like to sort them by
column(1). Is there any way to sort them without creating
the recordset.

Thanks

Are you linking to the data in the other application? If so, use that linked table in a
query, sort the query as you wish, then use the query as the Row Source of the combo box.
