Default Sort by date

I have a report that has information coming in with dates by day. eg February
28, 2007. I am trying to sort in descending order and cannot seem to make it
happen. If I sort =month([date by day]) it does the months descending but
not the days. Thanks

Default Sort by date

Are you trying to sort by month and then by day?

If so, you can use the Month([date by day]) as the first sort, and then add
the second sort

Day([date by day])
