order of query

Hello,

I encounter a problem that I cannot solve myself...

The problem is the following:
I make a table: several records: the first field is always a number,
the following field is always an address
When I make a query based on the numbers, the result (rapport) is
listed in the way it was entered in the table, it is not listed in the
way I enter it in the query.
But I need it to be shown in the order of the query.
I hope you understand my problem, if not, please leave a message so I
can explain it to you in a different way
Thank you very much for your help

Are you sorting the query. Open up the query in design view. From the
menu select View/SQL. Do you see an ORDER BY in the SQL? If so, write
back and try to describe the problem with more detail. If you don't see
OrderBy, select View/Design and you'll see a row called Sort. Click on
that row for the fields you want sorted.

If the fields are in the order of ID, DateField, CountField but you want
to sort it by CountField, DateField you need to
1) switch the order or
2) drag down CountField and DateField...in the order you want sorted...,
click the Show checkbox off, and set the Sort row for the fields in Asc
or Desc order.

This is a report? If so then use the reports sorting and grouping
feature to select the field you want to order by.

If you want the report to look like the query, then base the report
off the query, not the table. Also, you shouldn't be entering things
in a query...forms are usually used for data entry...

good luck

Huh? I assume you weren't responding to me.

As I mentioned, forget about how the query returns records and use the
reports Sorting and Grouping to provide the order.

I wonder where you got the idea about *entering* data - in forms,
queries or whatever.
