Hello
I would like to sort the items in a listbox alphabetically.
In visual basic there is a sort property but I don't see one in Access 2k. What is the best way to sort listbox items?

Sort by date Sort by votes
add an ORDER BY clause in the SQL code of the RowSource property.

Hope This Helps, PH.

thanks PHV!
I went to the RowSource query builder and just set the sort to ascending. Rather simple if you know what to do :)
