hi,

i have a report. there are some points like 1,2,3.

if the information regarding point 1 is more then one page then it is not printing the excess information that has to be printed on next page.
i want to print information that is not printed on first page duse to insufficient space to print on next page.

also there is another field besides point called ID.

as of now report is sorted as order by point. then order by ID.

i want to have whole report order by ID only not by point.

but i didnot see ORDER By clause in any of the datamodel query. then how is it sorting??

and point field is a formula column and ID is database column.

i datamodel query where there is ID i wrote ORDER BY ID DESC it didnot work. still it is doing what it was doing before.

is there any other place where we can do sort by ??

i have 2 questions mentioned above.

thanks
jillu

For the ordering read up on the break order property in report builder help.

In addition to Cookiemonster's answer, you'll recognize "order by" columns in Data Model Editor as they'll have blue arrows pointing up (ascending) or down (descending).

As of printing the rest of information on the second page (if it doesn't fit the first one), check whether repeating frame's "Maximum records par page" property is set to "1". If so, change it to "0" (zero).

How many groups have you got in your data model?

It might be simplest if you post a screenshot of your data model along with the query you are using.

But as far as I can tell, if reports is ignoring the order by in your select statement you've got to have a break order set somewhere that overrides it.
