[AccessD] Order By question

Thanks. I'll give that a shot. Typically, the way the app is used, they only
add a single transaction to the subform on each visit to the parent form.
(The parent form displays Riders and the subform displays Riding Lessons,
payments, tack purchases and such.) The subform draws directly from the
Transactions table. Would I be better off changing its record source to a
query?
