How To Use Interactive Sort on Grouping Reports?

Dear Anyone,

We created some reports that are mostly grouped reports. These are reports that doesnt have detail values but rather uses the grouping section only. We've enabled the interactive sort feature of RS2005. But unfortunately, it doesnt seem to sort at all when we click on the sort links. Can anyone pease enlighten me on why this is so?

Thanks,

Joseph

Interactive Sort has two options: the sort target scope and the sort expression scope.

It sounds like you are using just the default settings - in that case it will sort the underlying detail data, but not the groups. You will need to explicitly specify the scope in which the sort expressions should be evaluated (in your case the name of the grouping).
