Tutorial
Accessing and Ordering the Data
Because the Customer table contains all the information you need for this report, you do not have to access any other tables. However, you can change the order in which Report Builder displays the customer information.
For this report, you want to list the customer information in alphabetical order by customer name. To do this, you sort by the Name field.
Follow these steps to specify the record sort order:
- Choose Database
Sort Order or the Sort button. The Sort Order dialog box appears. Because you have not specified a sort order, there are no fields listed in the dialog box.
- Choose the Sort button to specify a sort order. The Sort Level dialog box appears:
![]()
- Choose the Name field. Report Builder displays Name in the Sort Field selection list. The Sort Order dialog box reappears with the newly defined sort order:
![]()
- Choose OK to return to the report layout.
