Default Translating Query formatting

I have a query that is set up to display records ordered by plan date then by
start date.
When I use the query in a report, it doesn't appear to sort the records.
Is there a way to make the report format the results the same as the query?

Thanks,
Dragon

Reports should always be sorted using the Sorting and Grouping dialog in
Report Design. The order in the query often has no effect on the order in the
report.
