Order records in a report

[Frank Spadafora]

I have a very simple report based on one table. I am trying to order the
records on two of the fields both in ascending order. To do this I placed the
names of the fields in the report Order By parameter and set the report Order
By On parameter to YES. This has no affect at all on the order that the
records are displayed.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In all but the most trivial reports, you should use the
Sorting and Grouping window (View menu) to specify the
report's sort fields.
