Hello
I have a very complex maketable query with many records and involving multiple VB functions which call other functions.
I need this table to be sorted by the first field.
But no matter what I do, there is a small chance of the table coming out unsorted.
I have tried sorting it with the 'make table' query.
I have tried sorting it with Word during output (my current configuration runs 4 of these).
I have tried reading it into an ADODB.Recordset, sorting, and outputing
I have tried running another maketable query from that table and sorting it in that query.
Nothing works, there is always a small chance of it not sorting. By not sorting I mean that the table looks like the program tried to sort it and then gave up halfway. The most common unsorted output is a sorted table cut in half, with the bottom half being on top.
What is going on?
Also, we have our database on the server and users have custom front ends. But for quicker access I copy the database to my desktop. My boss however, uses the database over the network. What we have noticed is that an unsorted table occurs more times to her than to me (we think)-- if that helps.
The field I'm sorting on is a text field in the form ###?.
We use Access 2003 SP3
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
