[MS_AccessPros] Re: query sort by date not working

 

Sarah - 

I don't see anything that would mess up the sorting unless it's in the properties sheet of the query. Have you checked that?

Also, what happens if you create a new query just on the MLTC table with only the enrollmentdate in the SELECT clause.

SELECT enrollmentdate

FROM MLTC

ORDER BY enrollmentdate

this is the complete SQL:

SELECT MLTC.*, [first name] & " " & [last name] AS [Registrant Name], studentworkfile.[preferred shift]

FROM MLTC LEFT JOIN studentworkfile ON MLTC.studentid = studentworkfile.[student id]

WHERE (((MLTC.enrollmentdate) Between [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid from] And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid to]) AND ((studentworkfile.[billing type]) Like [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pmb]) AND (([last name] & ", " & [first name] & " " & [mi]) Between [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln from] And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln to])) OR (((MLTC.disenrollmentdate) Between [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid from] And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid to]) AND ((studentworkfile.[billing type]) Like [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pmb]) AND (([last name] & ", " & [first name] & " " & [mi]) Between [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln from] And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln to])) OR (((MLTC.disenrollmentdate) Between DateAdd("d",-1,[Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid from]) And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pid to]) AND ((studentworkfile.[billing type]) Like [Forms]![zformcrwk]![pmb]) AND (([last name] & ", " & [first name] & " " & [mi]) Between [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln from] And [Forms]![zformcrwk]![ln to]))

ORDER BY MLTC.enrollmentdate;

Hi Sarah - The sort should work. Something else is influencing the sort order. Can you switch to SQL view and post the SQL for you original query?

I am trying to sort my query results by date, the field is defined as a short date in the table, however the sort does not work.:6/30/2017 sorts before 3/1/2017.

If I add  Format([mydate],"yyyymmdd") AS sortdte and then run another query sorting by sortdte, it sorts correctly.

I would like to just run one query that sorts correctly, i have tried 'Order by mydate' and 'Order BY  Format([enrollmentdate],"yyyymmdd"), neither version works.

Is there a way to 'fix' this?.

Thanks for all help

Sarah
