Sory Order Problem in Report

W

WAMozart

Using Access 2007 on a Vista Ultimate computer. I created a new Access
database by importing data from Excel. Since then I have added several dozen
new records. In a basic report (everything defaulted except font and column
widths) I want all records sorted by a Title column. In the report all
records added since the table was created display at the top of the report in
date added order, then all records imported originally from Excel display in
Title alpha order under the new records. What did I do, or how do I fix the,
the sort order so all records display sorted by Title?

Open the Report in design view; select View... Sorting and Grouping. Specify
the sort order there. Save the report and it will henceforward sort the
records as requested.
