Sorting by Calc Field in a Report

1 New Member
Has anyone found a fool proof solution to sorting a calculating field in a report in Access 2003?

Grouping and sorting works fine in a field that pulling directly from a query but when you try =Sum([Dollars_Lost]), it does NOTHING!!! Any suggestions??

Post your SQL. There must be something wrong with it because you can sort by the sum in a query.
