Default alphabetize my drop down list in my forms

My drop down list in my forms is in alpha order but when I added new names to
the table and sort ordered them, they do not sort order in the corresponding
form. They show up on the bottom of the list.

Base the Combo Box on a Query sorting the records alphabetically - not
directly on the table.
