Sort Order of Queries
I have a query where I enter the auto numbers allocated by access in a table
to produce a report of interview questions. I want the query to be in the order I enter so when I mail merge it they come out in the order we are going to ask them. The query is in the form of "1 or 7 or 3 or 212" etc. I have the sort order on no sort but when the query is processed it is not displayed in the order I have entered. Any ideas?? |

Add a Date/Time field to your table.
Set its Default Value property to: =Now() In your report's Sorting And Grouping dialog, sort by this field. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP. Perth, Western Australia.
