Report, Sorting and Grouping Box.
You use the SortOrder property to specify the sort order for fields and expressions in a report. By specifying a sort order, you can organize your records in a particular order. For example, if you’re printing a list of suppliers, you can sort the records alphabetically by company name.
The SortOrder property uses the following settings.
