I have a table of products with fields named SIZE, ITEM, PRICE and a SOLD_DATE field. When I try a R/List statement on the entire table BY ITEM BY SIZE BY-DSND SOLD_DATE I will get a list proper sorted by ITEM and SIZE but the SOLD_DATE field is not sorted right. If I sort the table only BY-DSND SOLD_DATE the rows are sorted in proper desending order by date. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Your query is a trifle ambiguous. Do you want it sorted in order of date sold, most recent first then broken down within date sold? If so the BY-DSND should come first.

If this is not the problem is there the chance that one of the other fields is multi-valued? This changes sort characteristics as it sorts one row per multi-value.
