Open your Table and click on your Date column and set to descending.

or should I say ascending dependent on what you are trying to achieve...I hit the post button too quickly.

Tracy,
Is Order By On Load set to Yes?

Hi Allan, I tried sorting the table to descending order and saving it, but that didn't work either.  And Kevin, yes, I clicked on Yes in the Order by on Load.  

My exam table is linked to a Unit table by the UnitID and the F_ExamInfo is a subform of the F_UnitInfo.  I pull up the company in the F_UnitInfo and begin entering the exam info in the ExamInfo subform (type of exam, who's giving the exam, and start date).  When the exam is over, I want to pull up the form again to fill in all the end of exam information so I want the latest start date to load first so I can just fill in the last of the info.

Is there anything else I can try?  Thank you for your tips.

The only other thing I can suggest without seeing how your forms are set up is to replace the Record Source of the form with an SQL statement (this is actually my preferred method).

SELECT * FROM [T_ExamInfo] ORDER BY StartDate DESC;

Thank you so much!  That worked.
