Ascending sort not numerically correct 1

[MICKI0220]

I have a report that sorts on the employees number, the supervisors have a 2 digit number and the rest of the employees have a 3 digit employee. I have selected the sort to be ascending, however in the report, the 2 digit id numbers are at the bottom.. the 2 digit id's are in the 80's and 90's and the 3 digit numbers are in the 100 to 200 range. I need this to sort numerically correct. Is there code that will make this sort correctly?

Thanks for the help.

You can sort on a formatted fields:

Format(ID,"000")

Your report is sorting as you are asking. If you need the text values sorted as numeric, set the sorting and grouping expression to:
=Val([Employee Number])
