Default Sorting Problem

I am trying to create a league table for employees.

The three fields are; Office, Name and amount sold.

Obvisously i am trying to sort on the amount sold.

Currently when i try to do this the numbers sort perfectly, however, i lose
most of the info in the other fields, why is this? what can be done to fix it?

Thanks in advance

Default Sorting Problem

Not clear how this is a "reports"-related question. Not clear if this is a
Microsoft Access-related question.

Are you working directly in the table? Do you mean a table like Access
means a table?

Where are you doing this sort? Directly in the table? In a query? In a
report?

When you say "lose most of the info" what do you mean? Permanently? Only
while you are sorting?

We aren't there, so we need more context to offer specific suggestions...
