I have a subreport which is based on a query. When I run the query it
delivers the fields ordered by date descending, as requested. When I run the
(sub)report, all fields are delivered but in date ascending. Any clues or do
I need to post more specifics?
Thank you,
Jon
 
Use Sorting & Grouping in your report at design time. There is a button on
your menu bar that will present you with a dialog similar to setting indexes
on a table.

and don't forget to remove the sorting from your query. There is no point
in sorting the recordset twice.
