Ok so how do I sort it? Select TRANS_DATE,TRANSTIME, POSNUMBER, TRANSNUMBER, Count(ITEM_QTY) as ItemsSold, SUM(LINE_TOTAL) as LineTotal from accounthistory " WHERE TRANS_DATE BETWEEN '" & StartDate & "' AND '" & EndDate AND AccountID='1001' GROUP BY ItemsSold, LineTotal Order By TRANS_DATE, TRANSTIME DESC;
Is that how I would sort it?

You don't have TRANS_DATE and TRANSTIME in either the GROUP BY or in an aggregate function.
